BARRIERS TO PLAY AND RECREATION FOR CHILDREN AN...

This report reviews international research into the barriers to play for children with
disabilities. The authors come from different disciplinary backgrounds  in Sociology  Social
Policy  Anthropology  Occupational Health and Education and bring different concerns to this
review. They are united  however  in their adoption of a rights-based perspective. The UNCRC
and UNCRPD emphasise the right to play for children with disabilities. Play is vital for child
development. The problem of 'play deprivation' for many children with disabilities is very
real. Yet the right to  and value of 'play for the sake of play'  for fun and recreation  must
not be forgotten in relation to the lives of children with disabilities. The focus in this
report is upon barriers to play that exist beyond the minds and bodies of individual children 
within a 'disabling' environment. Barriers include those associated with the design of the
built environment  social attitudes and professional practices. The report maps an agenda for
further research in this area  emphasising the need for participatory methodologies that
capture the views and voices of children with disabilities  their friends and families  on this
important issue of play. ABSTRACTING & INDEXING Barriers to Play and Recreation for Children
