摘要：
In this paper, we focus on the relationship between parents' education and activities aimed at increasing the human capital of children (for example, educational childcare). Using time use surveys from Mexico, Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia we find that in Mexico, Peru, and Colombia the level of education of both father and mother has a positive association with the time devoted to educational childcare, while in Ecuador only fathers' level of education has a positive association with father's time devoted to educational childcare. Furthermore, we find that the time devoted to educational childcare by parents is positively related in all four countries.
