Because learning and development are best fostered through play, this Play Therapy Sand Tray Basic Portable Starter Kit with Tray, Sand, and Miniatures activity table and role-playing toys will help my students build upon the natural way they learn about the world around them and the relationships they have with their families and peers. Play therapy also provides a safe psychological distance from their problems and allows them to express thoughts and feelings that they can't put into words. These materials will be helping my students cope with difficult emotions and find solutions to problems that seem too big for them to resolve. In addition, it will help my students develop social skills, empathy, and respect for others different from themselves.
