This article investigates the curriculum development for Early Childhood Education in the municipalities of Florianópolis and Balneário Camboriú between 2009 and 2021, aiming to identify the trajectories and contexts of both municipalities in the construction of their curricular documents. Florianópolis has a consolidated tradition since the 1990s, based on valuing childhood with a focus on children as subjects of rights and on the participation of the educational community. Balneário Camboriú began its systematization more recently, emphasizing play as a central axis, but faces challenges related to the continuing education of teachers. The analysis delves into the symbolic and cultural dimension of the curriculum, based on Chartier;s representations, revealing that both municipalities face the challenge of aligning national guidelines with local reality. The study concludes that the curriculum is a field of dispute over meanings and social practices, reinforcing the importance of a critical, democratic, and sensitive Early Childhood Education that is responsive to the cultural and social diversities of children.
