Description

Brain growth is most fast during the first three years of life, and play therapy is critical in supporting healthy child development and maintaining parent/child bonding.

This tape is jam-packed with age-appropriate, enjoyable, play-based interventions to rewire the brain and instill trust and safety in the environment of the newborn and early kid. Children learn how to connect with the world around them via play, how to communicate and negotiate with others, how to explore emotions and empathy, how to fire their imagination and creativity, how to increase resilience and self-esteem, and so much more!

This video will help you comprehend attachment theory and child development, distinguish between developmental age and chronological age, and, most significantly, understand children and how they play.

Client-centered play therapy – Cognitive-behavioral play therapy – Developmental play therapy – Family play therapy – Theraplay® will be among the play therapy theories and approaches covered.

You’ll acquire confidence in working with this young demographic by watching films, reading case studies, and participating in hands-on directing play-based activities.

Children are sensory learners, and play is a whole sensory experience in which they engage and make sense of their surroundings.
