Brincando e aprendendo: resgatando formas e conteúdos do brincar no contexto indígena da Aldeia Guaxuma

Abstract

This work aims to discuss and suggest a reflection on the Pataxó indigenous games of the Guaxuma Village. Based on a bibliographic analysis, important arguments on the subject were pointed out and from research carried out within the community, important data were collected. Which were observed how children play today and how these games from the time of their parents and grandparents have been abandoned throughout history. In the second moment, the games were addressed in the natural and cultural development of the indigenous child, especially the Pataxó of the Guaxuma Village. Soon after, the games assume their exclusive form of being a social fact that implies learning.
