Summary of Learn to Play Therapy Principles Process and Practical Activities by Karen Stagnitti PDF
This book provides the background, theoretical underpinnings and the process and principles of Learn to Play Therapy. Learn to Play Therapy has been developed and refined for over 25 years. This book is written for therapists who work with children aged 12 months to 8 years. It is a therapeutic approach for children with autism spectrum disorder, developmental difficulties, and children who find playing spontaneously, perplexing. Learn to Play Therapy focusses on building a child's ability to self-initiate spontaneous pretend play ability. Pretend play is associated with social competence, narrative, language, self-regulation, creativity and problem solving. The book is a complete revision of the first edition Learn to Play book which was published by Co-ordinates Publications. The second edition is 314 pages and includes 114 play activities, parent handouts, and a Play Background Checklist. A USB is provided with the book and contains the printable pages. Play assessment is the first step in Learn to Play Therapy as an understanding of a child's self-initiated pretend play ability informs which play activities to choose to begin the therapeutic process. The Pretend Play Enjoyment Developmental Checklist (Stagnitti, 2017) and the Child-Initiated Pretend Play Assessment 2 (Stagnitti, 2019) are recommended to be used with Learn to Play Therapy. The theoretical underpinnings of Learn to Play Therapy are informed by Axline, Vygotsky, and the neurobiology of play. The process and principles are explained in depth with Chapters 1 to 3 providing an unfolding explanation, starting with an overview and becoming more detailed across the three Chapters. This second edition also has a chapter on working with parents, questions and answers, and case studies. The play skills cover: engaging activities for those children who show no enjoyment or understanding of play; pre-pretend play activities for children who require therapy to begin on the very early levels of play; and the pretend play skills of sequences of play action, describing and explaining, object substitution, doll/teddy play, play scripts, role play, social pretend play, attributing properties and absent objects, problems in the play and predicting what will happen next. An extensive reference list is included.
