As atividades sensoriais assumem um papel fundamental na Educação Pré-Escolar, uma vez que permitem às crianças explorar o mundo que as rodeia através dos sentidos, promovendo experiências significativas de aprendizagem, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento da criança. O presente estudo, desenvolvido no contexto da Educação Pré-Escolar, teve como objetivo analisar a relevância que os/as educadores/as atribuem às atividades sensoriais para a promoção do desenvolvimento e da aprendizagem das crianças. O trabalho investigativo teve como grupo de estudo seis educadores de infância em exercício de funções em jardins de infância do concelho de Viseu e seguiu uma abordagem qualitativa, recorrendo a entrevistas semiestruturadas como principal técnica de recolha de dados. Os dados obtidos tornaram-se significativos no momento da sua análise e interpretação, sendo este trabalho o resultado de um processo reflexivo sobre o material recolhido, o que possibilitou dar resposta aos objetivos definidos e à questão problema do estudo. Os resultados mostraram que existia uma forte semelhança entre as conceções dos educadores e as suas práticas, destacando o papel do educador enquanto mediador do processo educativo e promotor de contextos de aprendizagem ricos, intencionalmente organizados e centrados na criança. Assim, este estudo reforçou a relevância das atividades sensoriais na Educação Pré-Escolar, sublinhando a importância de práticas educativas conscientes, reflexivas e promotoras da exploração sensorial, da experimentação e da aprendizagem ativa.
