The P.L.A.Y. Project is based on the DIR® model, in which play is structured around “following the child’s lead” and getting down on the floor to “meet the child where he/she’s at.” But The P.L.A.Y. Project is a much more structured version, built on the 7 step Skill Sequence. We also provide a community-based delivery system through Home Consultation. Dr. Greenspan and Dr. Solomon are colleagues and Dr. Greenspan fully supports this structured application of his theory. Dr. Solomon is on the faculty of Dr. Greenspan and Dr. Serena Weider’s Interdisciplinary Council on Developmental and Learning Disorders (ICDL).
