ROBERTO, Fátima Maria da Costa; MACEDO, Ana Paula Pereira  e  MORAIS, Normanda Araujo de. The experience of family leisure. Rev. SPAGESP [online]. 2020, vol.21, n.2, pp. 97-110. ISSN 1677-2970.

The literature mentions the importance of leisure in family life, highlighting the significant interactions it promotes and its contributions to family well-being. It sought to understand the experience of leisure from the perspective of the family group, describing the possible influences of the experience of leisure on their dynamics. Three families participated, who answered a sociodemographic questionnaire and an interview of the family group, besides having produced photographic records of leisure moments. For the analysis of the interviews, including the reports about the photographs, the Content Analysis was used. It was verified that the families described various leisure activities and conceptions and that all mentioned the positive effects that the collective experience of leisure generates to their dynamics, favoring the coexistence, the dialogue, and the joy. However, the limitations of time, money, access to leisure options, and the conciliation of the demands of different generations were described as impediments to the family experience of leisure. We conclude by reflecting on the implications of the findings for leisure public policies and leisure education.
