The methodology was based upon the social-historic approach as proposed by Vigotski, developing a documental research followed by an empirical research. The first utilized the scholar applications of 203 children from a nongovernmental institution (Sociadade Cidadão 2000). The empirical part consisted of the evaluation of 81 questionnaires and the interview of 12 children (of both genders), picked from the ones who answered the questionnaires. The questionnaires were intended to allow a better comprehension of the routine and lifestyle of the surveyed children, while the interviews provided in depth information based on the questionnaire answers, allowing for a new direction on the constitution of these children subjectivity - as it was noticed that childhood playing and household duties are central in their socializing process. The surveyed children presented diverse family patterns, where grandparents are present and important figures in their lives, whereas the mothers are the most referred to concerning child education. These children associate positive feelings concerning their family, cooperate on household duties and have child playing as part of their routine. Most of these children report suffering some kind of violence, but define being a child as being able to play and have fun.

The household duties are also part of their socializing process, however gender issues play an early role in this matter.
