Lipscomb University Center for Play Therapy and Expressive Arts

We join the play therapy community in mourning the loss of Dr. Garry Landreth. Dr. Landreth was a mentor to our play therapy faculty, and our center is a testament to his life's work. Our Introduction to Play Therapy students spent the afternoon watching his video Choices, Cookies, and Kids tinyurl.com/nha9v6u9 and discussing his book Play Therapy: The Art of the Relationship. We are grateful his legacy has been immortalized and will live on for future generations of play therapists, parents, and children.

"It is regrettable that play has been identified by writers as children's work. This seems to be an effort to somehow make play legitimate, intimating that play can be important only if it somehow fits what adults consider important in their world. Just as childhood has intrinsic value and is not merely preparation for adulthood, so play has intrinsic value and is not dependent on what may follow for importance." - Garry Landreth

May we all make time for play today.
