This is an exploratory and descriptive study that was jointly carried out by Nursing Care and Occupational Therapy as part of a Research Project that intended to prepare children for elective surgery at the University of São Paulo's Hospital de Reabilitação de Anomalias Craniofaciais. Objective: using toys as a therapeutic resource for relieving the child's real and unconscious tensions concerning hospitalization for surgical treatment at the HRAC - USP. Method: 44 children participated in the study. An observation form was used to collect data and it was applied at two separate times: the first time was the day before the surgery was to take place and the second on the day of the surgery just before the event. Twenty one variables were elaborated by the researchers to categorize behaviors regarding hospitalization. The resources used were: storytelling, dramatization and demonstration of nursing interventions with puppets dressed in surgical garb (gloves, surgical gown, mask and cap) with medical equipment commonly used in hospital. Results: of the 21 variables analyzed, 8 showed statistically significant differences on the McNemar Test (p<0.05). Conclusion: interactive play enables hospitalized children to interact in the hospital environment, so that they can express feelings and emotions and it contributes to humanized hospital assistance.

Marital conflicts have been largely investigated in research, especially because of its impact on child development. Based on a literature review, this article aims to present some reflections about marital conflicts and its possible associations with children's behavior, particularly through parental practices. Emphasis is made on a systemic view of causality between marital conflict and child behavior, which offers a better comprehension of the family functioning. This perspective also allows us to enlarge the analysis scope beyond linear correlations between both variables.

Negative parental practices may influence the onset and maintenance of externalizing behavior problems, and positive parenting seem to improve children's social skills and reduce behavior problems. The objective of the present study was to describe the effects of an intervention designed to foster parents' social skills related to upbringing practices in order to reduce externalizing problems in children aged 4 to 6 years. Thirteen mothers and two care taker grandmothers took part in the study with an average of four participants per group. To assess intervention effects, we used a repeated measure design with control, pre, and post intervention assessments. Instruments used were: (a) An interview schedule that evaluates the social interactions between parents and children functionally, considering each pair of child's and parent's behaviors as context for one another; (b) A Social Skills Inventory; (c) Child Behavior Checklist - CBCL. Intervention was effective in improving parent general social skills, decreasing negative parental practices and decreasing child behavior problems.

Identifying parental practices contingent to the behavior of children is important to support interventions. This study compares parental disciplinary practices with the behavior of children in a clinical group with behavioral problems (n = 27) and of a group of children without behavioral problems (n = 26). The criterion to assign children in the clinical and non-clinical groups was obtained from the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL). Information concerning parents-children interaction was obtained through the application of the Parental Educative Social Skills Interview Script (RE-HSE-P), which evaluates positive and negative educational practices, context, behavioral problems and children's social skills. Qualitative and quantitative analyses (Mann Whitney's test) were used in the groups' comparison. The results indicate that behaviors that differentiate between the clinical and non-clinical groups are mainly those related to positive educational practices and children's social skills.

Objective: To assess the practice of children's toilet training through interviews with parents and caretakers. Methods: A cross-sectional study of healthy children using a questionnaire applied to parents or caretakers of 100 consecutive children aged 3 to 6 years old. Results: 97% of the children were home-trained by their mothers and 92% of them used their intuition, previous experience with an older child and grandmothers' experience. Bowel and bladder toilet training started simultaneously in 84% of the cases, whereas 41% of the children mastered stool control earlier. Mothers with lower educational level and of social classes C, D and E initiated the training earlier and one of the related reasons was the cost of disposable diapers. Age in initiation or duration of toilet training was similar for boys and girls. Children presented most of the readiness symptoms for toilet training and only a small number of them used a seat reducer or a foot support. There was no increase in constipation prevalence after toilet training and there was no encopresis. Conclusions: Mothers were responsible for bowel toilet training and initiated it with no specialized help. In C-D-E social classes, the cost of diapers was determinant to initiate bowel toilet training.

O presente estudo aborda a avaliação e intervenção com bebês em uma instituição de acolhimento infantil na cidade de Belém-Pa, através da aplicação da Escala de Desenvolvimento do Comportamento da Criança – EDCC e de um programa de atividades elaborado pela pesquisadora para a estimulação precoce/essencial das habilidades motoras, cognitivas, linguagem e afetivas. Dados referentes à história pregressa de todas as crianças envolvidas no estudo também foram considerados e obtidos por meio de relatos informais da equipe da instituição de acolhimento e através de documentos (prontuários) junto à direção. Participaram do estudo quatro bebês, com idade entre seis a onze meses, que não apresentavam disfunções neurológicas e com o maior tempo de permanência na instituição. A abordagem metodológica utilizada foi qualitativa, com característica descritiva e interventiva de pesquisa. A avaliação com a utilização da EDCC no período pré-intervenção demonstrou que todos os bebês participantes da pesquisa obtiveram a pontuação “4” referente a classificação “bom” da escala, sendo que inicialmente apresentaram dificuldades na realização de comportamentos que envolvem a linguagem e a interação social. Na reavaliação, a maioria dos bebês participantes manteve a pontuação “4” com apenas um evoluindo para “5” (excelente), visto que obtiveram melhora significativa nos comportamentos que exigiam a interação com outra pessoa. Assim como através do programa de estimulação, as crianças evoluíram na aquisição das habilidades motoras e afetivo-sociais. Os bebês passaram a demonstrar comportamentos como olhar nos olhos, sorrisos, reconhecimento do rosto do adulto, vocalizações, entre outros. Isto evidenciou que o contexto de acolhimento pode ser um fator de proteção para a infância que encontra-se em situação de vulnerabilidade. Por fim, propõe-se que estudos futuros possam reconhecer a importância da avaliação do desenvolvimento infantil em contextos institucionais e de propostas de estimulação que possam ser incorporadas no cotidiano desses ambientes.
