RESUMO

The goal of study was to survey the motor actions children perform in a typical childhood environment, playground of elementary school. The central issue was to see whether these actions were related to age, sex and the kind of toy used. Forty 4 and 5 years children were observed, individually, for ten minutes while playing freely. The children spent more time in postural behaviors, followed by manipulative and locomotive behaviors. Of these behaviors, stand, sit, walk, fine manipulations and hold were the most observed. Boys spent more time playing sand pit, miscellaneous and soccer. Girls spent more time playing sand pit, miscellaneous and fantasy. Four years old children spent more time playing sand pit and miscellaneous, while five years old children playing sand pit, mescellaneous, soccer and fantasy. Throughout these observations it can be noticed that children exploit the physical environment which they are inserted regardless of sex and age. However, physical space clearly affect the kind of behavior children become envolved
