| Summary: | This paper explores the relationship between culture, education and childhood based on studies that focus on the themes of museums and childhood, as well as on the observation of children visiting the Brazilian International Museum of Naïve Art, in Rio de Janeiro. The investigation aims to contribute to the dialogue between the fields of Education and Museology, highlighting children’s right to access museums and receive quality attention on their premises. The results of the research show that museums have an enormous potential for developing moments of playful learning for young children, as long as we fill the gap in theoretical studies that elucidate the specificities of infancy in these spaces. |
