GOMES, Lisandra Ogg; CORSINO, Patrícia  and  PEREIRA, Rita Marisa Ribes. Childhood and Pandemic: feelings and utopias of children. Educ. Real. [online]. 2023, vol.48, e129672. ISSN 2175-6236.  https://doi.org/10.1590/2175-6236129672vs01.

What do children say about this broad social and cultural world affected by covid-19? What feelings and utopias have children from Rio de Janeiro experienced? These are questions that guided our research, carried out in 2021, when we interviewed 73 children, between 4 and 12 years old, living in the state capital and metropolitan area of Rio de Janeiro. The research involved five groups, linked to two public universities in the region, and we opted for the familiarity network technique in order to reach the children. The results indicate that the children operated their feelings in the present time, as a way of understanding reality and imagining futures to nurture utopia while recording what substantiates all that has already been lived.

Keywords : Childhood; Children; Pandemic; Rio de Janeiro.
