There are many activities you might introduce in recreation therapy, such as music, sports, arts and crafts, aquatics, ropes courses, dance, and drama. The interviewer wants to know your favorite activity because you will most likely use that activity often. They also want to determine if your style and creativity align with their company's values. Describe your favorite activity and why you like using it in therapy.

"My favorite activity to use in recreation therapy is yoga. I like yoga because people of all ages and mental and physical abilities can participate. I can adapt yoga to be done on the floor or in a chair so that everyone can participate. I love to see the positive effects it has on my patients almost immediately. Yoga improves my patients' moods, calms their minds, enhances their immunity, and increases their balance and flexibility. I believe yoga is the perfect recreational activity to be used in therapy."
