PARTEN’S
STAGES OF PLAY

MILDRED PARTEN
•Mildred Parten (1902–after 1932) was an
American sociologist, a researcher at University of
Minnesota's Institute of Child Development.
•She completed her doctoral dissertation in 1929. She
developed the theory of SIX stages of child's play
•Parten was one of the first to conduct extensive studies
on children for the case of play.

UNOCCUPIED
•The child is not
playing or watching
anyone or anything
in particular.
•They might stand or
sit and just do
nothing.

•The child spends most
of their time
watching others play.
•They might look or
talk to the players,
but will not engage
in the actual play
activity
ONLOOKER

•The child plays
alone.
•No connection or
conversation is
made with anyone
nearby.
SOLITARY PLAY
(Independent Play)

•The child plays alone
but with toys that
are shared with
others.
•The child plays
beside other children
but communication
might be limited or
none at all.
PARALLEL PLAY

•The child plays with
other children.
•The play is not
coordinated. They
may talk and share
toys but they are
still independent
players.
ASSOCIATIVE PLAY

•Children come
together and play.
•A group of children
with a common goal
or similar interests,
acting out adult
situations or playing
formal games.
COOPERATIVE PLAY

OTHER TYPES OF PLAY
THAT CONTRIBUTES TO A
CHILD MATURITY

Continuation:
•While these stages are important and
necessary for a child's social development,
there are other types of play that also
contribute to a child's maturity.
•These types of play usually develop as a child
begins to engage in cooperative play and
include:

DRAMATIC / FANTASY PLAY
•Got a kid who loves to play dress up?
How about pretending to be an
“Artist" or “Lawyer?" That's dramatic,
or fantasy play.
•Through this type of play, not only
does your child's imagination get a
workout, but they learn how to take
turns, cooperate, share and work on
language development.
•Through role play, kids are also able to
learn about functioning in the greater
community.

COMPETITIVE PLAY
•Whether she's beating her brother
at raceway and Ladders or playing
on a local soccer team, your child is
engaging in competitive play.
•Rules and turn taking are the big
lessons taken from this type of play,
but so are taking turns and
functioning as part of a team (if
that is the type of play involved).
•This can be a very fun type of play
if your child wins, but be prepared
to talk your child through it if she
loses.

PHYSICAL PLAY
•This type of play is less about
being social (although it certainly
involves that) and more about
being physical. Gross and fine
motor skills really come into play
here, whether your child
is throwing a ball or riding a bike.
•Physical play is important because
it encourages kids to be active,
something they are likely to do as
they get older.

CONSTRUCTIVE PLAY
•Building with blocks. Making a road
for some toy cars. Constructing a fort
out of couch pillows. All forms of
constructive play.
•Constructive play teaches kids about
manipulation, building and fitting
things together. Cognitive skills are
important here too as a child learns
to figure out how to make
something work best, whether it is a
block tower that won't stand up or a
sand castle that keeps collapsing.

PLAY

•It is a type of play
which concentrates
on events in health
care settings such as
injection, or
procedures
MEDICAL PLAY

PLAY IN ILLNESS
•PLAY THERAPY – it is a form of psychotherapy since 1900.
Play therapy is generally employed with children aged 3
through 11 and provides a way for them to express their
experiences and feelings through a natural, self-guided, self-
healing process. As children’s experiences and knowledge
are often communicated through play, it becomes an
important vehicle for them to know and accept themselves
and others.
•THERAPEUTIC PLAY – It is the use of play specially as a
language for sick children to communicate their thoughts
and feeling

CHARACTERISTICS OF MEDICAL
PLAY
1.Part of its content medically themed and / or it includes the use of
medical equipment. 
2.Play may be offered or initiated by an adult/parent, but is voluntarily
maintained by the child. 
3.Medical play is usually enjoyable for the child and is accompanied by
laughter and relaxation. However, the process of play can be intense
and aggressive. 
4.Medical play and preparation are not the same. They are not
interchangeable.  When an adult attempts to prepare a child for a
medical event by demonstrating a procedure or familiarizing a
child with equipment, education may occur, but not necessarily play. 
Play may follow familiarization if play opportunities are made
available.

PURPOSE OF MEDICAL PLAY
•Provides diversion and brings interaction
•Helps to feel more secure in strange environment
•Lessens stress of a sick child
•Release of tension and expression of feeling
•Encourage interaction and development of positive
attitude
•An expressive outlet for creative ideas
•Means for accomplishing therapeutic goal
•Provide the child an active role

TYPES OF
MEDICAL PLAY

ROLE REHEARSAL / ROLE
REVERSAL PLAY
•This is the most traditional medical play.
Children take on the roles of health care
professionals, acting out medical
procedures and events on dolls, puppets,
stuffed animals or other people (children
or adults).  
•Real medical materials and equipment
is used, as well as specially made toys
created for medical play, such as toy
doctor kits, a patient puppet, a doll
sized MRI or hospital bed.  Children often
use this type of medical play to re-enact
events they have experienced. 

•This also involves role playing
medical themes.  However,
traditional play materials, blocks,
doll houses, cars, trucks and
stuffed animals are used to
create roles and stories for
medical play, instead of actual
medical equipment. 
•In medical fantasy play, children
avoid contact with feared
objects, but can still play out
topics of concern. 
MEDICAL FANTASY PLAY

•Hospital themed activities
such as puzzles, games and
songs enable
familiarization, exploration
and education relating to
medical experiences.
•This type of play also uses
medical materials in non-
traditional ways, such as
using syringes to squirt
water, and using IV tubing
as drinking straws. 
INDIRECT MEDICAL PLAY
Indirect Medical Play

•This offers many different ways for a
child to express themselves, their
understanding of and reactions to their
medical experience.  Art activities can
vary greatly, including painting,
drawing, collage and 3D sculptures.  
•Basic art materials are appropriate:
paint, paper, markers and glue offer a
wide range of choices.  Including some
medical materials, such as band aids,
plasters, gauze and tongue depressors
can enhance the medical theme.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS
THAT PARENTS CAN PROVIDE ARE:
•Time
•Space
•Materials
•Caring Adults

Ways to support play:
PROVIDE OPEN-ENDED PLAY TIME
•Allow your child the time that he/she needs to explore,
discover and control the environment. They need long,
uninterrupted periods for spontaneous free play. The
period should be at least 45 minutes to one hour
•Parents can involve themselves in play but should mentor
of coach rather than interfere
•Children should be the prime architects of play
•Create a playful atmosphere. It is important for the adults
to provide materials which children can explore and
adapt in play and to reach their full potential.
