Brief Summary:
Play is an important activity for children Almost all children play but what is play It is not easy to define play In the past people believed that children played to burn their energy Now it is known that play is important for childrens growth Some kids with disabilities cannot play Many experts use play to teach children specific skills People often forget that play is a childs right It is important to help all children play The first step is to define play and find what features are important in helping a child with a disability play
There are some models of play But they are not complete They do not look at play as a whole Some models are just about playfulness and some are about playing with others Having a model that defines play helps researchers and clinicians think about play and the different parts of it Then when a child cannot play experts can fix the part that is not working Investigators want to introduce a model of play in this project Investigators want to edit and complete it in three steps First Investigators will ask parents and children with disabilities about things that help or do not help them play then investigators will give Lego robots to kids that they will build with help and play with them for a few weeks And at the end investigators will ask therapists and other experts about our model of play This model will be edited during the study

Detailed Description:
The study is designed in three phases employing a mixed-method approach that integrates qualitative and quantitative methods Phase 1 involves exploring the alignment of the Dice Model of Play with the experiences of 10 children aged 3-8 diagnosed with physical disabilities and their guardians through semi-structured interviews and content analysis Phase 2 examines the practical application of the model with a cross-over design Ten children will build their Lego robots within a co-design and will play with that robot for eight sessions The other group will play with conventional toys for eight sessions They will switch after finishing those sessions Sessions will be directed by a master of occupational therapy student supervised by Dr Jacquie Ripat a registered occupational therapist in Manitoba Assessments will be Test of Playfulness TOP enjoyment PPE_DC and play skills ChIPPA-2 three times at the start switching point and last session A go-along interview will be conducted in the co-design Lastly Phase 3 seeks expert opinions on the revised Dice Model of Plays clarity relevance and applicability using online focus groups with professionals in occupational therapy psychology and computer science The study aims to modify and enhance the model based on the findings from these phases
