Developmental maturation may begin with infant or toddler play before attempting mature activities such as board games or organized sports. A traumatized child’s development may become arrested with holes or gaps from missing simple and healthy parent/child interactions, lack of exposure to age appropriate activities, and the inability to manage the emotions evoked from the trauma.
The following resources provide ideas for learning through the senses such as with finger painting, modeling clay, playing on the playground and in a sandbox, sharing picture books, working along side a parent, nature walks, building block towers, playing catch, making and playing with crafts, etc.
