Integrate Play
Neuroscience, Nature & Networks for Developing Young Minds
Why Integrate Play?
At Integrate Play, we use evidence-based practices to make play a great resource for your family or organisation. Purposeful play interventions are humanistic, child or family led, and structured around identified strengths and needs.
​
When we play, our minds are working at a higher level than what we are able to achieve during any other activity, and when play enters, stress leaves. Watch Stuart Brown's video in the resources section for more insight.
Knowing this, we are able to use the power of play to purposefully identify and build on our resources, allowing vulnerabilities to be expressed, problem-solving to take place, and helping us to become more resilient to the challenges we face in our lives.

The Integrate Play playroom
Situated adjacent to a creek and immersed in pristine rainforest, the Integrate Play playroom promotes feelings of safety and security while allowing for a nature-based sensory experience as well. Take advantage of the nature playgroup, and meet others who are also discovering new ways to play.
