SZYMANSKI, Maria Lidia Sica  y  COLUSSI, Lisiane Gruhn. The presence of role games in Early Childhood Education. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.67, pp.41-61.  Epub 15-Mayo-2019. ISSN 2238-2097.  https://doi.org/10.29286/rep.v28i67.4170.

We investigate whether role playing games occur in the kindergarten by researching the Knowledge State, and we present a Case Study concerning a Municipal School, involving two steps: one is documental, analyzing its Pedagogical Plan, and another, involving observation, which was registered in a field notebook, about role playing activities from children aged 5 to 6 years, during 14 hours. It was found that early childhood education no longer solved the false dilemma between schooling and playing, and did not provide time and space for role playing games. It was concluded, emphasizing the importance that the school allows the occurrence of such games, which are fundamental to emotional, social and cognitive development.
