Blocks are a great staple to have in your toy box
Because they are
- open ended and allow children to extend on their storyline, which can encourage language and social interactions.
- They can become anything! A phone, a person, a spoon or even a witches wand!
- They can appeal to all ages
- When engaged in play and therapeutic play they can flex various parts of the brain
Blocks are open and transformative and are almost always used in a play therapy session. They are a wonder in developing play skills.
Play therapy welcomes and accepts the child for who they are, creating a safe environment in the Play Therapy room is key for their therapeutic journey.
