Lowenfeld realised that "Play" was the medium through which children worked out their emotional conflicts. She recognized that it was a cognitive process which could be analysed (in a non-Freudian way) to understand and deal with behaviour problems and also perhaps help them to develop. She developed the then new concept of non-verbal communication, and methods and tools for using "Play" as therapy and as a therapeutic and analytical tool.
