Abstract:
This thesis aims to discuss the use of play in the teaching-learning of children in
relation to the Bible. Given the present, where the material values often outweigh the
spiritual it is necessary for the child to grow fully, harmonious and based on ethical
values and in the words of God, have knowledge of and intimate contact with biblical
teachings, which are so pleasant and relationship with their day-to-day, and this is
why many educators, including the religious use playfulness as facilitator of this
learning tool. As the Bible itself, children are the future of "generation to come"
(Psalm 78.1-8) and require a religious and spiritual preparation not only to transmit
the divine teachings from generation to generation, but also to prepare for life, and in
the future a good citizen and person of God, thanks to their preparation as small,
family-based linked through institutions that value the education of religion (church
and school). The teaching of the Bible, coupled with new methodological tools of
education, in this case, the use of play in order to facilitate learning and knowledge
about God and his word in the Bible, allow children to be agents not only growing
body but the mind and spirit, transformers and transformation, Christians who walk
this world consciously.
