Problems with Philosophy for Children

Abstract

Introduction:  In the April 1992 issue of Analytic Teaching there was an essay by Jen Glasser from Australia dealing with the problem of materials with which to do philosophy with children.  Although Australian and Danish education are very different, we share some of the same problems raised in the essay.  So I feel inspired to share with the readers of Analytic Teaching the problems we have in Denmark with the American texts by Lipman, and our ways of doing philosophy with children.
