Practice from our Larisa Slobodyanik:
“A corner of“ Water and Sand ”has been created in the psychologist’s office. This zone of non-directive therapy is designed to solve problems of relaxation, correct external and internal conflicts, express and work out new emotional states of the child. Of course, here we use special toys. The child, perhaps, is afraid to express openly his feelings and attitudes; it is possible, without fear, to project anything onto the toy of its own choice. Instead of expressing feelings and thoughts in words, the child can bury this or that toy in the sand, hit, drown, etc. The child’s feeling is often impossible to express verbally (in words). Sand and water are frequently used by a kid as a play environment. There is no right or wrong way to play with sand and water, so every child can always be sure of success, and sand with water can turn into anything with their desire. ”
