Rooted in her comprehensive education and experience, Melissa LaVigne offers readers a diverse selection of play therapy activities ranging from breathing activities to challenging, interactive games. As an early childhood educator, this book offers teachers a unique approach to incorporating much-needed play back into the classroom. This book will undoubtedly be a wonderful resource for so many!" <strong>--Lindsay Kennedy, M.S., Elementary Curriculum Coach</strong></p> <p>"As a child therapist I have often wished I could hand parents a book that would not only clarify how play enhances the therapeutic process with children but could also lead to more enjoyment and satisfaction in their lives together at home. With many pages of easy activities to build the parent-child bond, this is the book I will reach for in the future to help parents explore the power of play to help them to communicate with, enjoy, and teach their children. Well done!" <strong>--Ann Beckley-Forest, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapy Supervisor</strong></p> <p>"Children need to be seen, heard, and feel connected. Many of us know this, and yet we do not know what to do. Melissa LaVigne has created a book that is all about being in the moment, experiencing and being with children exactly as they are. Her activities create opportunities in which grown-ups truly see and hear children in supportive, playful, and creative ways. Each activity offers a present moment experience within which a child can feel truly connected with someone prepared to spend therapeutic time with them. My university students in my counseling with children course as well as the children with whom they work are going to love this book. I can't wait to share it with them!" <strong>--Catherine Cook-Cottone, PhD, Licensed Psychologist and Professor</strong></p><br>
