Abstract

The presente study aims to analyze the influence of play spaces on the motor development of preschool children: a case study at the Flor Real Children’s Center in Maputo City. In this study, the qualitative approach was used as a methodology using a literature review. For the materialization of the research, an intentional sample was used, 2 educators were selected, end semi-structured interviews and an interview guide were used for data collection. The results of the research show that the lack of adequate toys and large spaces are a limiting factor for the motor development of preschool children. The study suggests that the center should provide a play space with sand, slides with different heights and slopes to meet the needs of different ages and abilities, and materials suitable for good motor development
