ABSTRACT:
This theoretical research aimed to reflect on the phenomenon of time management performed by the child, based on the notion of reiteration, in the context of the Sociology of Childhood. The reiteration, as a resource of time management, allows the creation of an operational place between fantasy and reality that releases the child’s action and facilitates formative experiences in their relations with the social environment. By repeating the real facts in games and plays, the child organizes his/her qualitative and quantitative perception of time. Through reiteration, he/she performs a temporality of world experimentation.
