In order for the research in question to significantly address this theme, the following topics were chosen: "The history of play", "The playful in the teaching of mathematics" and "The playfulness and its contributions in the teaching and learning process of mathematics. The discussions take place by the most diverse theorists who collaborate in a deep and contributory way with regard to the presence and importance of playfulness in the formation of the citizen, in this way the construction of the study is of a bibliographic nature. the use of recreational activities contributes satisfactorily to the learning of mathematics.
