We present in this article reflections made during our sharing experiences with the Guarani people, seeking to understand their own processes of education, which involves children and is responsible for the person's formation. The study derives from researches that have been taking place for over a decade and is based on an ethnographic and collaborative perspective. Reason and sensibility are united to build understandings on the educational ways of this people, dialoguing with authors that describe indigenous children education from other places and times. We verified an education that considers the spiritual dimension, the community's collective dimensions that is implicated in the person's formation, and an individual dimension, in which each is responsible for oneself, imbued by a search and a path.

Keywords : Indigenous Education; Indigenous Children; Guarani Children; Interculturality.
