ROCHA, Maria Silvia Pinto de Moura Librandi da. O ensino de psicologia e a educação infantil: a nova política pública para a educação infantil e o ensino fundamental e suas possíveis repercussões para o desenvolvimento psicológico infantil.

The objective of this text is to deal with issues which allow us to reflect upon the challenges faced in the teaching of psychology towards preschool. These reflections were highlighted after the recent changes made in the Brazilian educational system, which determines that kids leave preschool one year earlier, and start elementary school at the age of 6. The possible impacts of this change are analyzed having in focus the playful activity, with special stress on the make-believe activities.In order to make these analyses, concepts of the historical-cultural theory are taken as background , especially the works of Vygotsky, L.S., Leontiev, A.N. And Elkonin, D. B.), the official documents proposed as reference for working with kids (issued by MEC) and what have been possible to identify in the educational practices regarding child's play. The text brings the questions between these two discourses (surrounded by contradictions) and suggests that the understanding of them may create an extremely important commitment in the teaching activities which approach the interrelations between Psychology and the education of young learners.
