MOREIRA, Ana Rosa Costa Picanço. Babies and the space of day-care center: a case study/intervention. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2013, vol.22, n.49, suppl.01, pp.305-325. ISSN 2238-2097.

This article aims to discuss the spatial organization of day-care nurseries based in the meaning of space created by the educators. This is a case study/intervention conducted in the city of Rio de Janeiro. We start with a cultural-historical and interdisciplinary understanding of space conceiving it as an educational, relational, historical and symbolic. The study included eight educators and 24 babies. We analyzed photos of spatial arrangements, reflective sessions with educators and observations made during 2008. The results indicate that interventions, through collaborative actions with the educators, produced significant changes in the mode of organization that room.
