摘要:The ludic strategy is one of the mechanisms which helps in the topic of teaching and learning for children. The present study aims to describe the experience of undergraduate students about the strategic approach of ludic activities in health promotion in pediatrics at a reference hospital in the metropolitan region of Belém of Pará. The methodology applied consist of an experience report about the ludic strategy in pediatrics, based on the experience of Nursing degree students. The research was developed during a partial internship at the seventh term of Nursing degree at Federal University of Pará (UFPA). Staging was a scenic resource used to display a children's tale about body hygiene. The insertion of songs was another element that made the proposal more dynamic. A method for applying the strategy consisted of using soft technologies after staging: folder and painting of drawings on the subject. Results have demonstrated that, during the performance, relatives and children were entertained by the theatrical performance along with the musicality expressed by the characters’ actions. This involvement represented a powerful resource to escape from reality, when a child and his/her family may forget the disease momentarily. Scientific knowledge associated to simple elements in care changes the painful scenario, and it also facilitates the communication and relationship between professionals and children.
