This article is part of the field of childhood studies and aims to understand the experiences of Brazilian children during the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, in this context with restrictions in collective living spaces. Through a qualitative investigation, children who live in Ceilândia, an administrative region in the Federal District, were heard in the months of October and November 2020. The children produced drawings that were analyzed together with the children and, later, theoretically with the other researchers. The theoretical contributions of the Sociology of Childhood, in conjunction with the Geography of Childhood, were considered as reference. The children, during the first wave of the pandemic, built a cartography marked by spatial restrictions, concentrating much of their time at home, pointed out that electronic games were their main recreational activity. The analyses indicated that the children developed a critical understanding and ethical positioning in the face of restrictions.
