Hello again,
I've just ordered myself some hopefully (only read the first few pages) inspirational reading: Playful Parenting by Lawrence J Cohen. Flicking through the index there are obviously references to this type of play that I haven't got to yet but I also found this in the notes (bibliography) at the end:
Nancy Carlsson -Paige and Diane Levin, Who's calling the shots? How to respond effectively to children's fascination with war play and war toys (Philadelpia: New Society Publishers, 1990)
Not sure if this will be of any help to either of us but I thought you might be interested in finding out more - I'm starting with the book.......
