| Summary: | The psychological research and investigations that been conducted to
date on the play of yoimg children have mostiy followed Piaget (1959).
According to this theory, children´s play is a natural phenomenon accompanying
the intellectual development of each child, ratlier than a
much more complex phenomenon in which other important social and
cultural factors are involved. This essay is part of wider research that
analyzes children´s play in its natural environment from an ethnograpliical
perspective. I will concentrate on gender differences encoimtered in
an uiban middle class group (located in the city of Guadalajara, Mexico),
as well as on how far the socio-cultural environment affects play
and how certain themes, roles and creativity result, depending on this
important factor. |
