The work was realized in the Dispensário Santa Terezinha, a fulltime kinder garden localized in na Gávea, Rio de Janeiro, with Maria Helena Barbosa. That's a place where kids spend the whole day, realizing scholar and entertaining activities. Based on the words that compound the vocabular universe of Helena, we recognized as the goal for the project the sentence "To Play spinning of asking ". There were some activities that happened at the kinder garden that already involved fun time and working with the body with learning. Helena believes in the creativity of the children allied to the introduction of new concepts. Based on the experiments realized by me and organized by the intercessor I could identify her wish to get a toy which could gather the children so that they could guess textures, colors, sizes and qualities of visual and touching objects. An structure with the shape of a dodecahedron was created, made of colored circles which receive groups of elements to be experienced and guessed by the children. The object was made of " bambolês", an already existing circular toy made of plastic, fixed with "velcro", which made it possible to easily build and unbuild the object. Differently colored and texturized materials generated figures belonging to the groups of aliments and numbers that were attached to the structure faces which was made of tissue and wood circles (" bastidores"). It may be used held still or put in movement spinning, while Helena makes questions referring to the objects that kids touch. The experience made me learn to focus my attention in the materializing process, in the experience with the materials and with people , liberating the creative process of many restrictions and opening place for the new.
