The central theme of the present study is the use of games and playful activities as motivating teaching resources in the teaching-learning and assessment process for children: an analysis between two dissertations: "The mediation of English teaching-learning for children: the role of playfulness" (2009) and "The board game as an assessment tool for children's learning of English" (2022). The main objective of the research was to emphasize the importance of playful activities and games as motivating factors in teaching children, in order to provide the opportunity to learn the English language in a comprehensible, fun and meaningful way, ensuring a quality teaching experience according to the BNCC (Base Nacional comum Curricular), trying to find out how the mediation of playfulness enables teaching, learning and assessment in a creative way. Bibliographical, descriptive and reflective, using the comparative method and qualitative approach between two Master’s Dissertations, this research had as its theoretical framework the authors such as Oliveira (2017), Carvalho (1992), Piaget (1971) and Vygotsky (1978) who contributed to ground the theoretical framework in order to validate the hypotheses of this research. It was possible to prove that the insertion of these playful elements contributes as a motivating factor for children when compared to traditional teaching
