Helpful Websites & Books for ADHD Information
Visit this great site for quality play therapy toys, books, games, sensory toys, puppets and creative materials!
www.childtherapytoys.com
Childtherapytoys.com was founded by a child psychologist, Gary Yorke, Ph.D. and Jane Yorke, M.A., to provide play therapy products to mental health professionals who work with children. Finding quality play room toys and games that last and facilitate therapy can be quite a challenge. Each item we carry has been carefully selected for its quality and therapeutic value.
We carry noncompetitive games from Family Pastimes, playroom toys, self-help books for children, puppets, therapeutic card games, and sound screens. As we continue to grow we will be adding more self-help books, therapy games, and of course toys!
We are also proud to carry My First Therapy Game which was developed by Dr. Yorke to introduce children to psychotherapy and facilitate insight and growth as therapy progresses.
