We adopted, as theoretical and methodological references, the current legislation for early childhood education and works by authors dealing with this theme. We emphasize the child in two conditions: legal, conception of citizen, subject of rights announced in the documents, and the incarnated child, that is, the one that is constituted through the interaction with the dimensions of historical, social, cultural and spatial materiality. We argue that thinking children by these dimensions is important for the initial education of the teacher, so we assume as an objective to understand from their memories, how the students of the Pedagogy course at a federal university think about the conception of childhood. This was followed by the methodological path of exploratory research, adopting content analysis as a technique. The data were generated by questionnaires applied to students who took the discipline at a later time and who, during data collection, were in the condition of trainees in the second semester of 2018. At the end, it was possible to conclude that, among the participating students, the understanding of childhood as a category crossed by social, political and economic conditions was unanimous. And understanding that children are constituted in a historical and cultural way is of paramount importance for the pedagogical practice in early childhood education.
