%X Introduction: Hospital Recreation (HR) aims to reduce disasters
caused by hospital admission. Objectives: To expose the behavior of
children in cancer treatment (CA) during HR,
and to verify which recreational activities generate the most adherence. Methods: The research is an experimental clinical trial of a non-probabilistic and intentional sample,
with a quantitative and qualitative approach. Participants were 43
children (both sexes), with CA, admitted to the Pediatric Hospital Oncology
Center¡ªPHOC. The mean age of the children in fact was 7.5 years,
and the data of mean and standard deviation between parenthood confer with the
data of the results found during the research. The study lasted 12 weeks, with
38 sessions lasting 3 hours. Using games of
activity: cognitive, manipulative, perceptive, creative and cooperative.
Inclusion criteria: 1) being hospitalized in the PHOC, of the city of Natal; 2)
being released by the medical team to participate in the
activities. Children who were on special care in the ICU were excluded from the
study. The behavior of the children was
evaluated by the observation matrix proposed by Urie Bonfenbrenner,
approached by Krebs and Koller. At
