The perspective of children attending CAPSi on the relationship between care and play. Temas psicol. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.4, pp. 1637-1651.

This study sought to understand the relationship between care and play in a Children's Psychosocial Care Center (CAPSi as per its acronym in Portuguese) in the São Francisco Valley area from the perspective of child users. Using methodological multireferentiality as a reference, which allows the integration of epistemological research perspectives, this study was based on phenomenology and was inspired by ethnography. Thirteen children from 7 to 11 years of age, and attending the institution weekly, participated in the research, which resulted in this report. The instruments used were: observation via field diaries and play activities (games, informal interviews, photography and, play dough). Data was analyzed using the triangulation technique, which aims to cross information, content and themes, extracting possible senses and meanings. Finally, phenomenological reduction allowed the identification of emerging themes, which were organized in categories named as: Care as food /basic necessities; Care and affection; Reciprocating care; Ambience: is it a care factor?; CAPSi as a place for play; Pleasure and involvement with play. Results contributed to studies on mental health in general, also promoting further discussions, which can value the child's protagonism through dynamic and flexible work.
