Learn a wonderful Play Therapy Technique / Play Therapy Cand Land Activity

This is my play therapy technique "The Candy Land" miniature world. I challenged myself to use only materials I had with me at the time to create this world. I used a file folder, scissors, glue, warm-fuzzies, clip art, glitter glue, and markers.

I must say I am really pleased with the results. I wasn't sure how I was going to create a play therapy candy-land world with no candy but I really like it. It is colorful and cheery. I could see how I could get some get work from a play therapy client using this technique. It also taught me that I can do great work and be creative without spending money, which is something I was skeptical about in the beginning of this play therapy class.

I think this would be a great activity to use with my clients around the holiday season because it can be stressful especially with kids being at home for so long.
