Recrear Centro de recreação para crianças em vulnerabilidade social em João Pessoa, PB.

Abstract

Childhood is a primordial phase in children’s lives, and it is during this period that many of the values and concepts that will be perpetuated during adult life are formed. It is in this initial stage that they undergo a great development, in different spheres, such as physical, emotional, intellectual and social. Therefore, it is imperative to invest in young children to maximize their future well-being. Considering that the child is a being in formation, it is necessary to understand how they relate to the world. So, through the studies carried out, the importance of playing can be noted, as being the expression of children’s language and the way it interacts with the reality around it. This premise of playing has been greatly affected when children are in a situation of social vulnerability. The scenario in Brazil shows a percentage of approximately 45.5% of children and adolescents in extreme poverty, a picture that is represented in the streets of João Pessoa, where children experience vulnerability, having their childhood usurped. Therefore, the proposal of this present work comes as a response to the need to generate a positive development for this public and thus proposes the Preliminary Project of Recre(i)ar – Recreation center for vulnerable children in João Pessoa, Paraíba. Equipment with spaces planned to meet the demands of each phase of child development, intended for experimentation and free recreation, providing autonomy and seeking to give the necessary confidence for these children to stop fighting for survival and start to have perspective for the future.
