Abstract
Preparing students for the future is a critical task and a vital responsibility of the school. The awareness and early exploration of occupational interests in childhood should mark the beginning of educational and occupational planning to facilitate the vocational development in this population. The professional counselor must work a coordinated plan in elementary school to promote the knowledge and assessment of occupational interests, as well as the curiosity, motivation, fantasy, play and creativity in order to bring the children closer to the world of work.
