The article deals with the some aspects of natural education for childhood, as described in Books I and II of the Emile or On Educationwork by Jean-Jacques Rousseau. The concept of natural education allows us to perceive Rousseau's connection to the Enlightenment movement, while revealing how he argues as a critic of reason. In the childhood the natural education should be related to the tension between the children needs and adult intervention, their balance would allow the childto develop in harmony with nature. The second childhood, in turn, would be permeated by an education in the midst of games and games, favoring a physical robustness and refinement of the senses. Natural education is based, in this perspective, on respect for the world of children and consequent understanding of the child as being complete in his special condition of development, which inserts it in a pedagogical plan whose objective would be the formation of the man in a broad sense.
