摘要：This paper presents concepts and proposes reflections on the relationship between children’s everyday play at school, produced during recess time, and the social dynamic elements that contextualize children’s culture. Meanings of the terms game, toy and play are analyzed and contrasted considering the playful action that ensues from the experience of the child who plays. Drawing from Fernandes’ studies (2004), this paper indicates forms of socialization involved during children groups’ playful activities, the role of cultural transmission in play and the creative dimension of playing that makes children agents of their own socialization and producers of their own culture.
