Do you recognize the power play can have in your therapeutic practice? Play is a powerful vehicle for learning. Creating effective play-based therapy sessions in early intervention requires creativity, flexibility, and an understanding of how play impacts development. Young children learn best through play that is relevant and meaningful to their lives, not through direct instruction. Often times, therapy can become too rigid and too much about task completion and not enough about play. Professionals who work with very young children must understand and respect the power of play in a child’s development.
