Therefore, the present study aimed to understand the training of Early Childhood Education teachers in relation to geographic education. For this purpose, the methodology of literature review was adopted, with a search for published works on the topic of Geography in Early Childhood Education, with a search in online databases, such as Scielo, CAPES Portal and Google Scholar, as well as on university portals. with analysis of master's dissertations and doctoral theses on the topic. In addition to carrying out a survey of PPCs for Pedagogy courses in the state of Rio Grande do Sul - RS, to identify whether they have curricular components that cover the teaching of Geography.
