just okay

Definately not as good as the other volumes. Techniques aren't as interesting and kid friendly. If you are trying to choose, go for volume 2.


Packed with creative play therapy techniques

A wonderful resource for therapists seeking new and creative techniques. The book includes therapeutic games, art, stories, and other techniques developed by play therapists from across North America. The one drawback--it would be helpful to have a theoretical overview of play therapy at the beginning of the book.

Therapists who like this book and who are looking for additional books on play therapy/child counseling techniques may be interested in the following books:

Good to have on hand

I am giving this book the same review as it's more current version, 101 More Favorite Play Therapy Techniques. There are a lot of really good, creative ideas in this first version, just as there are in the newer version. However, the one thing that is lacking in both books is a quick statement at the begining of each activity that identifies what age group and what general problem the activity is most appropriate for. Such information allows me to decide, right away, whether to invest the time in reading further about the activity if I think it would be relavent to a particular child I am working with.

A resource for play therapy techniques. The contributors come from a diverse group including child-centred, cognitive-behavioural, gestalt, Jungian, psychodynamic, and prescriptive play therapy. The criteria for selecting techniques for the text was the same as in the previous two volumes. Therapists were asked to contribute techniques that were specific, practical, relatively inexpensive, and original. The techniques are grouped in seven sections: expressive arts; puppet play; storytelling; group play; play toys and objects; game play; and other techniques. Each contributor has included an introduction to the technique, a rationale for using it, and a detailed description and application to illustrate how the technique is performed with children. The expressive arts techniques include various media used in expression through art, such as paint, sculpture, clay, markers and drawing. These media have successfully aided children in expressing issues where communication was difficult. The group play techniques illustrate different methods of play for children's social skills, anger management, and other support groups. In game play techniques, the child feels safe to express his or her own thoughts and feelings as if involved in a real issue. With the play toys and objects techniques, the therapist is using a specific toy or object to facilitate expression in therapeutic play. Storytelling techniques help children express issues of grief, anger, abandonment and attachment through the metaphor of the story. Puppet play techniques can help children express conflict and role play issues regarding family and friends in a safe environment.
