MULTIPLE CHILDHOODS AND EDUCATIONAL CHALLENGES IN THE AMAZON FLOOR
Keywords:
Amazonian Childhood, Playfulness, Extended Family, Protection Networks, Riverside CommunitiesAbstract
The study investigates Amazonian childhoods, emphasizing playfulness, family, and protection networks in the daily life of riverside communities, analyzing their implications for child care and development. This qualitative, descriptive, and exploratory research sought to understand how play, kinship ties, and godparenting structure both formal and informal educational practices, contributing to cultural preservation and community cohesion. The findings indicate that playfulness, beyond being a pedagogical resource, is a cultural expression and an instrument for strengthening identity, while the extended family acts as a core for protection and knowledge transmission. The study reinforces the importance of policies and practices that value cultural and territorial diversity, avoiding homogeneous models disconnected from the local reality.
