AB  - The traditional plays constitute the transmission of knowledge from generation to generation as well
as a preponderant resource to develop skills such as motor and abilities: intellectual, playful, socialization,
organization, tactics, strategy, creativity, imagination, self-reliance and collective knowledge transfer, among
its most relevant characteristics in contrast to the sedentarism proposed by the diversification and new forms
of static game formulated by these technological advances previously mentioned in the ICT. This research main
objective to spread the study of a science as important as the Semiotics, imperceptible but dichotomous to the
system of signs that constitutes “the game”, used in this work as a methodological tool to precisely decode
this system of signs across its fields: Nonverbal, gesture, observational and descriptive with the aim of
evaluating them and exploring some possible directions towards the construction of a wider theoretical
perspective which does not limit the pragmatic sphere with a well defined scope raised in the theoretical
framework and methodology for its analysis. The study lends a transcendental goal on early childhood play
as the struggle for sociocultural claims through its tradition which has been upset and displaced by what is
imposed by the new Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as consecuence of the unstoppable
standardization suggested by globalization where day after day people lose them identity as a people and
without perceiving it are a little more alienated.
