A presente dissertação aborda a importância da atividade lúdica no desenvolvimento infantil e o papel que as novas tecnologias têm na vida das crianças em idade pré-escolar. No presente estudo, realizaram-se inquéritos a partir de dados de opinião, dirigidos a crianças e aos seus familiares mais próximos. A partir de uma metodologia qualitativa-interpretativa, pretende-se verificar as preferências lúdicas manifestadas pelas crianças e as preferências lúdicas na perspetiva dos pais. Através da análise dos dados, conclui-se que todas as crianças gostam de brincar e que estas consideram a brincadeira como importante. Para além disso, mais de dois terços das crianças inquiridas prefere brincar com os amigos. Na escolha da brincadeira que desejavam fazer durante a tarde, verificou-se que as crianças que escolheram atividades que envolvem uma relação com outros, escolheram menos brincadeiras que envolvem aparelhos eletrónicos e nas quais o gasto de energia envolvido é superior. Conclui-se ainda que mais de 59% das crianças brincam entre uma hora e uma hora e meia, por dia, com aparelhos eletrónicos, sendo os mais utilizados em casa o computador, a televisão e o tablet. No futuro, é preciso compreender sobre a importância da atividade lúdica e o seu significado, enquanto forma de representação mental. É igualmente necessário aprofundar o conhecimento sobre os brinquedos de ecrã e as novas formas de brincar com as novas tecnologias, tendo em conta os riscos e benefícios inerentes às mesmas.
The following dissertation addresses the importance of play on the development of children and the role of modern technologies on the lives of preschoolers. In this investigation, surveys were conducted regarding the opinions of children and their closest family. Through a qualitative and interpretative approach, it was attempted to ascertain the preferred playing activities of preschoolers, by inquiring about both their perspectives and their parents’. As a result of the data analysis, it can be concluded that all the children enjoy playing activities and that they consider playing as an important activity to their lives. Furthermore, more than two thirds of the inquired preschoolers prefer to play with their friends. Regarding the type of play they favored, it was possible to verify that children who prefer to play with other people choose fewer activities involving electronic devices than their counterparts. Additionally, their activities involve the expenditure of more energy. Another conclusion that can be drawn from the data analysis is that 59% of the preschoolers play from one hour to one hour and half with electronic devices, per day. The most used gadgets were computers, televisions and tablets. In the future, it is necessary to recognize the importance of play activities and their meaning as a cognitive representation. It’s equally important to deepen our knowledge about electronic games and the new interactions with modern technologies, due to its risks and benefits.
