Play therapy is a simplest form of physical therapy which helps all children with delayed milestones, deviated behaviors or developmental disabilities. Play therapy can help children to gain motor skills, cognition, communication and daily activities. All children love to play and scientific play can do miracle.

Play therapy can be provided by all but under the guidance of a trained play therapist. During play session, the therapist creates a comfortable, safe environment in which the child is allowed to play with minimum limitations. Toys used in the therapy session may include a sand-tray, clay, putty, water pool, other constructive toys, costumes or other clothing, teddies, dolls, puppets. Many indoor games are also played along with music. Music makes play enjoyable. Play therapy with music becomes doubly beneficial.
