Embark on a journey through time and reflect on the present!

This RioONLINE!, we want to invite you to a special activity where we’ll get to know typical Brazilian games, discover the charm of old-fashioned childhood and bridge the fascinating (and challenging!) technological world that shapes today’s youth.

Remember the magic of running barefoot, flying kites, playing hopscotch and hide-and-seek? Not only were these games part of generations of children in Brazil, but they also reflect a culture full of joy, creativity and simplicity. But how do these traditions compare to today’s digital universe, where fun is often found on a screen?

How do the children of yesteryear, who played in the streets and squares, connect with today’s youth, who grow up in a world of games, social networks and tablets?

Come along to this debate at RioONLINE! Child’s play.
