Abstract

Hospitalization for children with cancer can constitute a trauma. In this sense, playfulness can be a strategy used to face this situation. The objective was to identify the contributions of playful interventions in the treatment of children with cancer, with a view to supporting the reflection and improvement of these actions in childhood oncological rehabilitation. This is a narrative review of the literature, with no time frame, carried out at the Virtual Health Library, considering the LILACS and MEDLINE databases, using the keywords pediatrics, oncology and playfulness, associated words and synonyms of these. Studies have shown that playfulness is an essential strategy in caring for children with cancer, reducing negative feelings and impressions and promoting well-being and coping with the disease and treatment. Finally, this instrument improves the quality of care provided by professionals and the quality of life of children, but for that, trained professionals and adequate environments are needed, as well as deepening the discussion on the topic.
