The ludic strategy is used by health professionals as a tool capable of transmitting values and promoting changes in behavior. The aim of this study, which is linked to the extension project ‘Nos na Rede,’ is to present the use of a puzzle book as a means of raising awareness of and motivating oral health. The booklet entitled ‘Vamos colorir?’ has been used as support material to access children’s knowledge about the etiology and prevention of tooth decay, emphasizing the role of diet, susceptibility to the disease, and guidance on oral hygiene. This book, which is directed to children in the literacy phase, presents 14 entertaining games, including drawings to be colored, spot the seven errors, connect the dots, treasure search, labyrinth, and crosswords. This instrument is utilized in health events at free demand, and it has been shown to be an effective tool to raise awareness and to facilitate the access to oral health information by children.
