Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the possibilities of concreticising the p_r.eschooler tale) so that it can be used in the pedotherapeutic situation, thereby giving the preschooler the opportunity to experience the preschooler tale more concretely. This will result in the fact that the preschooler has sufficient understanding of the content of the tale, so that he can apply it in such a way that it has vital meaning in his everyday existence. When working with a preschooler in therapy the pedotherapist often experi~nces problems in choosing the appropriate technique because the verbal }lbilities and general development of the young child hamper therapy. In this· study the aim was to concreticise the preschooler tale by compiling and designing techniques which may be used successfully in pedotherapy. The empirical study was executed with the aid of semi-structured interviews based on an interview schedule. The opinions of experienced academics and authorities in the field of pedotherapy were collected. It was ascertained that there is scope for techniques to concreticise the preschooler tale in pedotherapy. It was found that there is use in concreticising the preschooler tale and that it will have a positive effect on the preschooler during pedotherapy.
