Sandplay and Storytelling:
The Impact of Imaginative Thinking on Children's Growth and Development
Barbara A. Turner, PhD
Kristín Unnsteinsdóttir, PhD
In this ground-breaking work, psychotherapist Barbara Turner joins her expertise in Jungian sandplay therapy with Learning Specialist, Kristín Unnsteinsdóttir’s rich educational and psychological knowledge to explore the considerable improvements of children who participated in her study that blended sandplay with imaginative storytelling. Dr. Unnsteinsdóttir’s research revealed that the children who did twelve sessions of sandplay and storytelling over the school year showed substantial gains in emotional and behavioral well being. In addition, their intelligence test scores improved significantly.
Drs. Turner and Unnsteinsdóttir explore the research that substantiates the role of imagination in learning, and examine the neurobiological underpinnings of doing sandplay and storytelling in an effort to explain how these imaginative play-based activities brought about these remarkable changes in the children. Not only does this work provide a grounded argument for the return of symbolic play and imagination to the educational setting, it raises a strong voice for their necessary inclusion.
