Children use their own body to explore the world, through the five main senses including vision, hearing, touch, smell and palate. However, our senses are not  been born fully mature, its maturation occurs gradually and the stimulus that children get assists them in this process. The project "Cognoteca" proposes to stimulate the senses through toys, plays, games and recreational activities contributing to the discovery of the body and the world through the senses, stimulating the full development of involved children. The interventions covered all classes of a nursery in the community of Serrinha at the city of Florianopolis. The project was characterized as an extension of the Federal University of Santa Catarina, linked to the Department of Psychology, it was conducted between May to December 2009. The attendance and the evaluation of the project were carried qualitatively, through reflections of each session made by the author jointly with other Psychology interns who had been developed other projects in the Nursery. The results of the project can be evaluated by excellent disposition of participants in all proposed activities.
