The Peacock figure has been a beautiful addition to our play space. A symbol of healing. Male peacock with tail feathers out on display. A strong call in the wild. I remember the joy of finding a long tail feather when I was a small child. I kept it for many years as a prized procession and a memory of a great day. Accessibility: a small plastic figure of a male peacock standing on a table. Colourful tail open.

A new Collecta Mammoth added to our collection in the Sandplay Therapy space. The brand doesn’t matter to the kids but I like how sturdy the figure is and the facial expression. Mammoth: big, bold, old. Who will be the first child to use this figure?

One of the puppets waiting for fun. Up on the shelf. Up out of reach. How can you stretch? How can you climb? How can you get to the puppet you want in the play space? Can you ask if you’re quiet? Can you scream if you’re loud? Will the puppet just know and climb down?
