Abstract
With the present paper, we intend to actually emphasize how a subject in a field applied to philosophy, the philosophy for children, could contribute to the process of the development of youth’s thinking. Our proposal does not envisage philosophy as most of the people understand it, as a body void of prefabricated ideas: we are approaching the act of philosophizing. This is not the exclusive property of those who call themselves “philosophers”, but it is typical to the human nature. We would like to show how the philosophy for children could represent an excellent exercise for the young mind, an effective form of research of world’s grounds.
