At the heart of Making Play Just Right: Unleashing the Power of Play in Occupational Therapy is the belief that pediatric occupational therapy is most effective when it incorporates play. The Second Edition is a unique resource that provides the background, history, evidence, and general knowledge needed to use a playful approach in pediatric occupational therapy. Specific examples help therapists use activity analysis with professional reasoning to best adopt these strategies. The second edition has been expanded to include a variety of new topics, including play in the schools, international influences, parent – child play, and much more.
