Playground: diversão e experiência aliadas à educação

Abstract

The study here presented presents a proposal for a playground in a school environment aimed at the Kindergarten. It is understood that that type of equipment shows a series of beneficts reflected in the children’s motor, cognitive and social development at the begining of their lives. For this purpose, the methodological tools proposed by Bruno Munari (1981) were used, with a few adaptations made by the research author, and a theoretical foundation was made to observe the early childhood children's development. Bibliographic researchs about the proposed equipment was also held, in addition to several readings about ergonomics for childrens in early childhood and the checking of the brasilian standards that adress the proposed subject. As a result of all these processes, a thematic playground model that proposes the exploration of imagination and sensory-motor capacities of the childrens who would come to use it was elaborated using 3d modeling.
