Philosophy for Children in The Times

There's been a lot of interest recently in Philosophy for Children recently, particularly after a research study demonstrating its benefits.
It even reached the pages of The Times where I am four therefore I think gives journalist Emma Cook's own experiences with her child and a review of the findings and Clackmannanshire Council's initiative.
I was asked to give my views for the article. I've written elsewhere about my favourable impressions of philosophy for children - especially if combined with teaching logic and also emotional intelligence more generally - so was happy to contribute.
If you are interested in finding out more, you can order the Socrates for 6 year olds DVD from Sapere.
