The research is qualitative, descriptive and the problem to be investigated is: how developed the pedagogical practice in early childhood education on the body in motion, in the municipal educational complex of Ponta Grossa/PR? Considering this question problematic aim the following research objectives: a) Check the space than the body in movement in early childhood education in municipal educational complex of Ponta Grossa/PR; b) Analyse the pedagogical practice developed in early childhood education on the body in motion, in the municipal educational complex of Ponta Grossa/PR; c) Identify methodological theoretical teachers of early childhood education of municipal educational complex of Ponta Grossa/PR. For the theoretical foundation of this study we use the following studies: Piccolo and Moreira (2012) and Garanhani (2000 , 2002, 2006) about the body in motion; Moyles (2002, 2006) in the discussion about the play; Gallahue and Ozmun (2003) with regard to child development; Mattos and Neira (2006) on Infant Physical Education; Gimeno Sacristán (1999) about the pedagogical practice and the writings of Foucault (1979, 2007) about power relations, training and discipline in early childhood education, among other authors. The survey was conducted in three (3) municipal educational complexes in the city of Ponta Grossa/PR. The subjects of research are the teachers of early childhood education of the participating schools. The instruments used for data collection were the note, the questionnaire and the interview. For the categorization and analysis of research data, we opted for the use of the technique of content Analysis (BARDIN, 2016). As search results we found that the teachers assign great importance to work with the body in motion, being present in the pedagogical practice of the same (as) through the play, the jokes, the playful and the physical education classes. However, the teachers of early childhood education have a weakened vision and dichotomous in relation to children's body and the way activities are developed. There is a preoccupation of the teachers of early childhood education with development in pedagogical practice of activities aimed at the learning of a certain content, and there is so little room for natural manifestations of the child. Missing the teachers of early Childhood Education knowledge of the body in motion and infant motor function as well as they lack elements to articulate the needs of the children with the know-how, given the peculiarities of the daily life and the pedagogical practice in this stage of basic education.
