Description: The present study was designed to test the feasibility of training parents of emotionally troubled children to undertake an active reflective role in conducting weekly one-half hour play sessions with their own children in a special setting.

Through a series of instruction, demonstrations and supervised explorations, parents were instructed to develop increased sensitivity to their children's feelings and to learn to communicate an understanding and acceptance of these feelings.
