Childhood, a fundamental and unique phase of human life, has been the subject of study and reflection throughout history. Understanding the historical and cultural development of childhood allows for a reevaluation of the conceptions society has constructed about the role of children. This critical perspective emphasizes the importance of play, not just as a leisure activity but as a powerful tool for learning and social construction. Despite transformations, many societies still face challenges in recognizing childhood as a stage with its own needs and characteristics. Historically, children were seen as “miniature adults” devoid of subjectivity, which led to pedagogical practices that neglected the natural way children learn and develop. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the historical and cultural evolution of childhood and understand the role of play in the present day. The research was conducted through a bibliographic review using a qualitative approach, analyzing theoretical references from authors like Pavnoski, Oliveira, Sobral, and Ribeiro, who contributed to understanding child development and the importance of play. It also examined the guidelines of the BNCC, which values play as an essential part of learning. The study proposes strategies to integrate play into the educational curriculum, such as thematic corners, games, storytelling, and outdoor activities.
