During such activities, the child would express his struggle and relation with the other family members and with the one in his community, which he represents them in toys that he play with or draw. The room was prepared with decoration, colors and tools that attract the children and feed their interests while distancing them from psychological tension and serious work mode.
The Adviser noted that the categories of children dealt with are the children under custody and referred from Shariah courts, along with child victims in criminal and juvenile cases. The adviser considered the Child’ room project as creating a safe environment in which children can express themselves through various types of games and drawing. This contributes to reveal the aspects in the child's personality and help him to recall past events and to face psychological and behavioral problems that he faces. It allows him to express his hidden and repressed desires along with any aggressiveness and negative inclinations and to transfer it to the game or drawing.
Mrs. Sana’a Rashid Alajmani, Head of Section at Family and Juvenile Prosecution said that the way of investigation with the children is built on basic principles that should be adopted by the psychological specialist. The specialist would start by making a relationship with the child so the child would be comfortable and play or draw in freedom.

The specialist may participate or not in the games of the child according to his wish. When the child starts integration with the toys the specialist would monitor his way of play and observe the roles performed.
