Reinventando o brincar no período remoto emergencial: relato de experiência na brinquedoteca do CE/UFPB

Abstract

The year 2020 and 2021 was marked by the pandemic caused by the coronavirus, causing the COVID-19 disease that affected the entire world population. Indicated by the health organization, people went through social isolation, a process that had impacts on human development, since social interaction is so important for development and learning, according to Vygotsky's sociocultural theory. As an alternative to the operation of the Toy Library of the Education Center of the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB), its activities became remote. Thus, this work has the general objective of presenting the activities and games developed in the remote period at the Toy Library of CE/UFPB in the year 2021, and as specific objectives: to punctuate the history of the Toy Library of the Education Center in the period from 2003 to the year of 2021; carry out a survey of the bibliographical production on Toy Library/CE/UFPB; identify documents referring to the creation of the Toy Library/CE; describe the activities carried out at the Brinquedoteca/CE during the pandemic. Methodologically, it is a qualitative bibliographical and documentary work that uses the notes and personal observations of an intern who worked in the toy library at the height of the pandemic. Finally, the toy library, even during the period of social isolation, contributed to the process of training people interested in the theme of playing and about toy libraries, as well as providing children with moments of interaction and fun, even in a remote format.
