Pre-experimental, one group pre-test-post-test method was followed. For this study 60 mothers were included as participants. Data collection was done by structured knowledge questionnaire tool. Results revealed as majority 32(53.33%) of mothers were in between 21-25 yrs. The relation between pre-test and post-test scores showed as overall mean difference of pre-test and post-test was 13.5, Median was 13, Mode was 12, standard deviation was 0.04 and range was 1. The study concluded that post-test knowledge score is more than pre-test knowledge score; hence the PTP is found effective.
