Sprout for Parents (otherwise known as "Parents' Place") was a website for adults whose children watched Sprout, active from 2007 until as late as 2012. The site had many articles and videos about both Sprout's programming and parenting, along with expert advice from KidsHealth and Sesame Street. It was a separate website from SproutOnline.com, launching the day of said site's rebrand on August 22nd, 2007,[1] with moderator Diana Capriotti. However, the domain was created that year on October 23rd. The site ceased operations in 2011, and despite the actual SproutOnline.com having a section devoted to parenting articles with its rebrand that same year, it would remain up for some time until 2012.
The website also hosted Sprout's "Band of Bloggers."
