          Abstract

          Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo investigar os tipos de brincadeiras utilizadas por crianças de 6 a 10 anos de idade que cursam o ensino fundamental e as diferenças de gênero existentes nas brincadeiras. A amostra constituiu-se de 213 crianças matriculadas no ensino fundamental (1ª à 4ª séries) de uma escola da rede privada. O método utilizado foi a entrevista com as crianças em suas salas de aula e a observação direta nos horários de recreio. Os resultados obtidos apontaram que alguns tipos de brincadeiras foram verificados em todas as idades pesquisadas, como por exemplo, as que exigem coordenação motora ampla, os jogos eletrônicos e os jogos de faz de conta. As brincadeiras estereotipadas foram mais pronunciadas entre os meninos de 6 a 8 anos de idade. A diversidade de brincadeiras e a freqüência de eventos observados diminuem entre as crianças de 9 e 10 anos de idade, principalmente entre as meninas. Conclui-se, portanto, que as crianças, mesmo estando em idade escolar, ainda apresentam motivação para brincar e algumas diferenças são encontradas nas brincadeiras no que se refere ao gênero e a idade.

          Translated abstract

          This study investigated the different types of plays engaged by 6 to 10 year-old-schoolchildren and their gender differences. The representative sample consisted of 213 children enrolled in a private elementary school (from grade 1 to grade 4). The method utilized was based on interviewing the children in the classrooms and observing them directly outside the classroom during class breaks. The results showed that some types of plays (e.g., electronic and pretending games), which require ample motor functions, were performed by all children. Stereotyped plays were more observed among 6 to 8-year-old-boys. The diversity of games and the frequency of the observed events decreased among 9 to 10-year-old-children, mainly with the girls. It is therefore concluded that children even at school age demonstrate motivations to play, and some differences are found in some plays regarding gender and age.
