Abstract
The playground is a social learning space in which students interact in a relaxed environment, play with classmates and participate in independent and informal activities. In this work a theoretical study is made about the importance of recreational spaces in the construction of the personality, trying to find out what is the current use of the playground in educational establishments and to determine whether there are other uses more suitable for enhancing capacities and encouraging relationships between students. For that purpose, an experimental study has been carried out that allows knowing the students opinion about the current playground spaces and how they would improve them to raising teachers awareness of whether we are really making the most of these facilities and making possible proposals for improvements to enhance the use of this space within schools. Therefore, the aim is to make the most of these places within schools in order to promote the learning and emotional development of students in their early school years.
