Play Therapy Sandtray Premium Portable Starter Kit

Great therapy resource for counselors!Portable and includes sand and many toy items.

I am an Art Therapy intern. I have been using this set for about 3 months.The carrying case has been a life saver seeing as how I travel with my supplies. It has side slots and allows me to add just a few added items to the bag. The set featured a great variety. I was ambitious and purchased a few extra pieces that I thought would not be included but much to my surprise...THEY WERE! So just wait it out and take inventory. Some of the pieces were not smooth because a little piece of plastic was sticking out from it. No worries, it was easy to shave it off without damaging the pieces. I loved that it included such a large selection, life, death, fantasy, wildlife, nature and ambiguous pieces. The pack also came with some spiritual/religious pieces. This was great as I work with several Christians and it has come in handy. To be more culturally diverse, I wish that it included 1 or 2 pieces, minimum, from other religions.

Great set for work in the field. I use this for grief and trauma work with adults and kids. It has most of the resources to get started. You can add to it as you specialize. It would have been great to have the sand rakes etc but those are cheap to add.

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of toys I got when I opened the kit. When I read previous postings in making my buying decision I was worried about dollar store level quality of toys, but they are actually quite good toys. It is a perfect mobile kit for my small office and when I go out into the community. I also figure into the cost the time and expense of searching down all these items myself over time and this kit was definitely a good value.

I am currently a Marriage and Family Therapy intern and I decided to get my own Sandtray kit after being trained in the use of sandtrays. First of all, there is an amazing selection of figurines and in my opinion, this is more than a start-up kit. The children I work with love this kit and the adults describe the experience as life-changing. Since I provide home and community-based services, the portability of this kit has been a blessing. It is not too heavy to carry around, and everything is just neatly packed. The figurines are sorted into little bags (career people, army men, animals, fairytale characters, buildings, plants, knights, etc. The sand does not spill when carried around. Although this kit is veeerrryyyy... expensive, I consider it a worthy investment. If you are considering getting this set, just do it. You won't regret it. FYI: it is smaller than the typical sandtray and the figurines are smaller too, but this is because they are made to be carried around.

I use this as a starter kit, I wish it had sports items though bc my clients have specifically asked for those. It was smaller than I anticipated, so I just bought a bigger wooden box. It is just kind of small for family or couples work. It really kind of small for most, but it will work if you travel to schools or different offices. Sand tray has been an awesome addition to my office.

A wonderful addition to my therapy space, compact and easy to use - easy unpack and repackFor use with all ages of clients - safe from about 4 when small items will not be place in mouth.

So many resources to use this has been wonderful.
