Abstract

This article, titled "Natural Elements as Pedagogical Resources: Perspectives on Play at Jardim dos Curumins," aims to reflect upon the significance of engaging with natural materials, specifically clay, as a potent catalyst for a child's integral development. The study is grounded in experiential practices conducted at the Jardim dos Curumins toy library, an educational space dedicated to the cultivation of free play in direct contact with nature. This environment prioritizes exploration and honors the agency and protagonism of the child during infancy.
