Résumé
El propósito de esta investigación con niños es darles voz a cinco preescolares que viven en Puerto Rico, con el fin de descubrir qué significa, para ellos, jugar y cómo juegan en su ambiente educativo. El trabajo se fundamenta en la visión posmodernista del niño y en la nueva sociología de la niñez. El estudio de caso múltiple facilitó conocer los puntos de vista de los participantes. Los niños dirigieron el estudio a través de los retratos que tomaron y las conversaciones que desarrollaron durante una visita guiada, al observar sus fotos en la computadora y en un libro, y al dibujar su área favorita. Mediante las conversaciones, se descubre que, para ellos, jugar en el salón implica participar en un proceso social que les brinda una fuente de posibilidades, al involucrarse en un acto creativo y reflexivo que les facilita la construcción de conocimiento.
