Описание: Play is the "work" of the child (and the de-stressor of the adult).
Play engages the whole person: imagination, emotion, cognition, and attention, along with the sensory and physical skills components of the game activities.
Games build in a reason for completing and repeating various ring figures, speed changes, stops and starts.
Learn ideas on how to add play into your treatments (or riding lessons) by layering on fun goal-oriented game activities into sessions with Incorporating Games in Hippotherapy.
