NASCIMENTO, Verônica Pereira do; SOBRAL, Catarina  y  CARVALHO, Carolina. Perceptions on the rights of the child: a study in the primary education in Portugal. Educ. Form. [online]. 2022, vol.7, e8122.  Epub 25-Mar-2023. ISSN 2448-3583.  https://doi.org/10.25053/redufor.v7.e8122.

The theme of children's rights has been in evidence for the last 32 years, because of the ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The aim is to know the perceptions of children in the 4th grade on the rights to participate and play. A qualitative methodology was used, semi-structured interviews were conducted and content analysis was performed with the support of NVivo software, establishing three categories of data analysis: child rights, right to play and participation rights. The results show (I) the need for knowledge and experience of rights; (II) the association of the right to participation with playing, with little reference to transforming; (III) the role of the adult as the one who intervenes in inappropriate behavior and dictates the rules. It should also be mentioned that the rights frequently experienced by children in their daily life are more easily described, while participation seems to be distant from their condition. Due to the implications of the pandemic some reflections upon the topic are urgent.

Palabras clave : participation rights; right to play; perceptions of primary education children..
