LEARN TO PLAY

The goal of Learn to Play Therapy is to help children develop their ability to engage in spontaneous pretend play. Pretend play is the most complex and mature form of play. Pretend play has an impact on the child's language (especially narrative language), social interaction, and emotional integration of the child's life experiences.

​

Learn to Play is a therapy programme for children who may have developmental delays, ASD , or who have difficulty playing with their peers. During the Learn to Play therapy sessions, your child will have the opportunity to improve their pretend play skills and build up to what would be  appropriate for their age and development. The sessions will include a variety of play activities that are ideal for your child's current stage of development and where they feel most confident. The play therapy sessions will gradually challenge your child as their pretend play abilities grow.
