The game is an essential activity for child, besides that it is an indispensable method for diagnosis and therapeutic intervention with children. The game contributes actively to cognitive, psychomotor, social and affective children development, as well as for self - and world - discovery. Since the first years the game is at center of social relations. It is from the perspective of early relation between parents and infants that we explore the characteristics of the game in this paper. After we briefly describe the characteristics of the game in children, we approach the expression of symptoms though the game, as well as we discuss the contributions of the game in psychotherapies integrating parents and infants.
