Sand Tray is a wonderful therapeutic technique to use when working with children and adolescents. These 10 sand tray prompts can easily be printed and laminated for frequent use. As a school counselor, I frequently tell students to pick a prompt on the list and build a scene for me. I let the students select their prompt and follow their lead. Every once and a while I may provide students with a specific prompt, however, this list is great tool for my regular check-ins (or as a get to know you activity). This product includes the following: 10 Sand Tray Prompts (available in 3 different color schemes and BW) Counselor Tips for using a Sand Tray (great for beginners) 10 Counselor Processing Prompts (10 prompts to help the student process their completed sand tray) If you're new to sand tray, check out my beginners guide here.
