The purpose of this paper is to consider the therapeutic meaning of sand in play therapy. In sandplay therapy, it has been pointed out that sand has therapeutic meanings in some ways. They can be roughly divided into two aspects. One is that it works upon clients physically through sensation. And the other is that it evokes various images to clients by its texture and plasticity. These two aspects seem to be indivisible and simultaneously promote the therapeutic process. In play therapy, sand tends to be used more spatially and physically than sandplay therapy. So therapist is more likely to experience critical situation of destruction or chaos in the therapy. In these situation, it is very important for therapist to be involved in the imaginary world and to survive the situation. For that, therapist needs to know the meanings of materials of the therapy well and enrich the images and experiences of them constantly.
