The aim of this study was to investigate ways to observe, know and map urban space with children in a Belo Horizonte border. Based on the experience of designing "spaces for children", the researcher distances himself of his craft as architect to approach to the subject through an ethnography of "spaces with children", not considered a social group isolated and search the (un) provided uses and the gaps that they find to appropriate city spaces, despite the boundaries imposed by the adult world. To meet this challenge without losing sight of his place as planner establishes as guiding of his research the exercise of spatialization data through the graphical record of information ranging from macro-regionalscale to local scale and scenes of everyday life. The exploration of another kind of reading of the urban space, alternation of positions, perspectives and spatialized graphic record is called, in this study, spatialized ethno-graphic form. The spatiotemporal cut adopted in thisresearch is unique: the surroundings of Barragem Santa Lucia Park in Belo Horizonte, located between a slum and an upper middle class neighborhood - an urban frontier. Occasion of presence in an ambiguous environment, the research revealed some aspects that, morebroadly, characterize public spaces in big Brazillian cities and urban experience: the fun and, at the same time, the multifaceted and multidirectional violence. The ethnographic maps - made through GIS and interactive programs of spatialization - are not static figures, butrather reveal the process of the exercise of drawing up an instrument, always proposing as a tool in progress, enables crossing data from different sources and at different scales. Thus, it is intended that the spatialized ethno-graphic form proposed may be appropriated byplanners, architects, educators, sociologists, anthropologists, geographers, public managers and also non-specialists.
