Abstract

A box is an object that motivates children’s games but, at the same time, it allows us to encourage mathematical knowledge. With “Not a box” story as departure point, play with cardboard boxes and with adult interventions, we are going to work space concepts commonly use in the children’s life which constitute the basis for future learning. The notion of space, self-position, and the position of objects in the space are all concepts related to geometry.
