And it had the following specific objectives: Identify the understandings of playfulness in the selected articles; Understanding how playfulness influences children's development; Describe how playfulness can be used in pedagogical practices in early childhood education. Starting from the considerations extracted from the articles and after excerpts from the main points of the authors on the theme addressed, although the themes are different, they dialogue with each other and expose the importance of playfulness in early childhood education. The interpretations allowed concluding the importance of pedagogical practices that emphasize the presence of lucidity, allowing the child to be the main subject, the protagonist of his story, allowing that through pleasant, fun moments, without demands and control of his freedom, the child can experience and express their opinions, creativity, imagination and emotions, resulting in their integral development.
