🧸 Recovering lost play time: supporting refugee and asylum-seeking children.

Forced displacement doesn’t end when children reach safety: it continues to shape their emotions, behaviour, and sense of self.

The chapter by Isabella Cassina focuses on a simple but powerful idea: recovering lost play time.

🌍 Play is more than expression, it's recovery, connection, and healing for children facing trauma, anxiety, aggression, and deep emotional distress.

In reception centres and crisis contexts, the key questions remain:

✅ How do we truly meet children’s needs?
✅ How do we involve families in healing?
✅ And how can play become a pathway back to wellbeing?

Through theory, field experience, and real case work, the chapter shows how play therapy can restore what displacement takes away: safety, expression, and the right to simply be a child.

💛 Because every child deserves time to play again.
