LEGO's, puppets, and sand trays are just a few items that can be used to enhance the life of students when coupled with evidence based strategies. I enjoy incorporating play when helping students address very difficult topics and real-life experiences such as the loss of a parent, a pandemic that has altered their world, or being bullied in various settings. Allowing one-on-one, group, and /or whole class interactions with toys and arts and crafts fosters within students a positive and effective means of communicating and/or processing their feelings.
Learning essential skills through play is effective in helping students process emotions, self-regulate, problem solve, and strengthen social skills amongst a host of other benefits that promote an overall healthy well-being.
