Our interest in this theme occurred due to understanding child's play in childhood as a fundamental activity to child development. It must be better understood for all those who work with children education.This research is based in the thoughts of Vigotski (2007) and we also use the contribution of authors as Rego (1995) and Kishimoto (2000, 2003, 2010).In our methodology we used semistructured interviews with four Preschool teachers of a public institution in a city located in Cariri. The data analysis shows that interviewed teachers are not clean about child's play and its importance to children. These data aim at the necessity of actions of formation that can propitiate a huge teachers' knowledge about the importance of child's playing and make-believe to children and to people who work in preschool and the importance to the work they develop this stage in education.
