TEIXEIRA, Sônia Regina dos Santos. The role of make-believe play in the humanization process of the riverine children in the Amazon. Perspectiva [online]. 2014, vol.32, n.3, pp.855-878. ISSN 0102-5473.  https://doi.org/10.5007/2175-795X.2014v32n3p855.

According to the cultural-historical theory, the human being humanizes himself by reconstituting on and for himself the historical features of humanity. This process occurs in social relations, through human activity mediated by physical and symbolic tools. In preschool, the make-believe play is the activity that guides development. When playing, the child discovers and appropriates the contents of its cultural surrounding, forming his/her human qualities. In this sense, the objective of this study is to analyze and discuss the role of make-believe play in the humanization process of children, studying children in a preschool class in a riverside school in the Amazon. The plays were transcribed, analyzed and organized into episodes according to the methodological principles of microgenetic analysis of culturalhistorical approach. the results demonstrate that children from Combu Island internalize their social relationships through shared meanings with partners at the play, becoming, in this way, Amazonian riverside children.
