0-2歲幼兒及其家長 

初始遊戲嬰兒按摩 (FirstPlay®)，是一種專為0-3歳嬰幼兒及其家長而設的遊戲治療手法，亦是一個親子互動課程。顧名思義，初始遊戲意指是孩子生命中第一類遊戲，就是與家長的互動。初始遊戲透過嬰兒按摩，將說故事、有趣的親密活動和俏皮有趣的觸撫結合。認證的治療師會引導家長透過有趣的方式，為子女一邊說「寶寶樹抱抱」這故事，一邊進行按摩。 

此遊戲治療模式能增強家長及子女的聯繫和依附關係、促進嬰兒的身心靈健康，並學習平靜、放鬆和專注，有效減輕焦慮和悲傷。治療師會以洋娃娃展示說故事及按摩的動作，讓家長能與子女同步練習這些技巧。在過程中，孩子們能深切感受到家長尊重與關懷的觸撫，是兒童健康地成長及發展的重要因素。

FirstPlay® Infant Massage Storytelling is an interactive Parent-Child program for infants ages 0-3yos and their parents. FirstPlay® is so named because it is the “first” type of PLAY that happens in a child’s life. FirstPlay® combines simple storytelling and joyful attachment-focused activities with playful nurturing touch through infant massage techniques. Certified FirstPlay® Practitioners instruct, guide and supervise parents in the activities of the Baby Tree Hug Massage© -- a playful touch-based story. 

This model enhances parent and infant bonding and attachment, promoting infant physical, emotional and mental health, as well as helping to learn calmness, relaxation and focusing, helping to alleviate anxiety and sadness. Practitioners demonstrate the storytelling movements on a babydoll while parents simultaneously practice the techniques with their infant. In this way children are receiving the respectful and caring touch needed for healthy development by their parents or caregivers.
