Abstract

This work is a bibliographical study with a qualitative analysis, the aim of which is to discuss and report on the importance of games and play in early childhood education for the integral development of children, both in physical aspects and in social and psychosocial aspects. In order to carry this out, research was carried out in the Capes, Scielo and Google Scholar databases. Authors such as Piaget (1973), Winnicott (1975) and Vygotsk (1984), among others, were also used. Given that many professionals find it difficult to understand the universe of play and the importance of games and play for the child's integral development, there is a need to train educators, guide parents and society about the importance of working with play in childhood and that play is part of pleasurable learning and is not just leisure for the child.
