The work Project proposed pedagogical practices that involved playing in the aesthetic experiments of art, through hearing and observation of the children during the research of materials of the nature, with the support of audiovisual materials, written register and photographs. The investigation had as objective the continuous reflection of such experience believing in the possibilities of development of the imagination, of the aesthetic sensibility by means of the pedagogical practices in art. This experience also echoed with the researcher’s own experiences and memories of childhood with the production from materials of the nature to express oneself.
