The text reports the experiences of project “Brincar: o brinquedo e a brincadeira na infância”.  Focused on the education of teachers, school managers and education secretariat managers, the initiative aims at permitting the deconstruction of the conceptions idealized on children, replacing them with the perception of them as individuals that have ways of acting that are different from those of the adults and that express themselves through different languages. The proposal is carried out based on the sharing and realization of plays from child repertoire and the observation of children playing in different contexts and social spaces, practices that offer to the participating audience and possibility of reflection on childhood and its cultural expressions, in particular on plays, which occupies a central space in child culture.
