Idle Curiousity

Abstract

Introduction:  I have just completed participation in the second year of a philosophy for children program at the Ransom Public Library in Plainwell, Michigan.  Both years have been sponsored by the Michigan Council for the Humanities, which has awarded the library two grants to run the program.  Director of the program is Jan Park, lead librarian.  It was my pleasure to meet with different groups of 4th and 5th graders during this time to discuss Harry Stottlemeier's Discovery and related materials.
