“Over the years, the Philosophy for Children program has made its way into many schools as a means of encouraging thinking and promoting discussion. However, the program does not limit itself to reasoning only. It also seeks to encourage creativity and personal and interpersonal growth.”
This seems to be a very good program. It deserves to be promoted!

Excellent idea – I know that as a child I drove adults mad with weird questions and was told not to be silly etc etc. so I gradually stopped asking. Luckily, I discovered encyclopaedias and dictionaries, which provided some answers, but a course like this would have been wonderful.
I think so too, Cat, a course like this would have been wonderful! 🙂
