Resumo: Contexts in which children interact without close interference from adults, as in times of free activities in a toy library, are revealed to be significant in problematizing and discussing aspects related to child development. How do the interactions occur among children in this space? What clues do they offer to the understanding of the factors involved in the construction of the "self" in these children? What is the role of the other/child in this process? These are some of the questions that the present study seeks to discuss, taking as its point of departure Vygotsky's contributions to the development of consciousness, those of Wallon on the role of the other in the awareness of the self, and those of Elias referring to the relation between the meaning the subject constructs about his life and the meanings attributed to it by others. The analysis of the data related to observations of the interactions between children and between children and adults in a toy library and, in particular between two children, a boy with Down Syndrome who lives with his family and a girl who lives in an orphanage, indicates that in the relationship established with the other what stands out is not so much a unique meaning, but a multiplicity of meanings of the self and the other, accompanied by affective resonances that can be varied and even contradictory.

Contextos em que as crianças interagem sem uma intervenção mais intensa dos adultos, como nos momentos de atividades livres em uma brinquedoteca, revelam-se significativos para problematizar e discutir aspectos referentes ao desenvolvimento infantil. De que maneira ocorrem as interações entre as crianças nesse espaço? Que pistas elas fornecem para uma compreensão dos fatores envolvidos no percurso de construção do "eu" entre essas crianças? Qual o papel do outro/criança nesse processo? Essas são algumas questões que o presente estudo busca discutir, tomando como base as contribuições de Vigotski sobre o desenvolvimento da consciência, as de Wallon relativas ao papel do outro na consciência do eu, e as de Elias, referentes à relação entre o sentido que o sujeito constrói sobre sua vida e os sentidos que os outros atribuem a ele. A análise dos dados relativos a observações de interações entre crianças e de crianças com adultos em uma brinquedoteca e, em especial, de duas crianças, um menino com síndrome de Down que vive com sua família e uma menina que mora em um orfanato, indica que, na relação estabelecida com o outro, mais do que um sentido único, o que se destaca é uma multiplicidade de sentidos a respeito do eu e do outro, acompanhada de ressonâncias afetivas que podem ser variadas e até contraditórias.
