Abstract

Children have long developed critical and creative thinking through reading and writing. In today’s rapidly changing world, it is important to make reasoning accessible through philosophy. Modern children are not only capable of engaging in philosophy, they also need it. Gifted children represent the intellectual capital of the state and the driving force of societal progress. The current secondary education system is not sufficient to quickly master and develop advanced technologies. There is a growing need to support and expand children’s worldview, foster logical thinking, and help them justify their ideas. Every decision made at the state level impacts future generations. Philosophy for children offers a way to involve them in this process and helps them understand their own needs. The saying, “If you’re so smart, why are you poor?” reflects the American idea that intelligence leads to wealth. Similarly, the phrase “America doesn’t do anything - Americans do!” highlights the role of personal initiative and consciousness. These ideas underscore the importance of nurturing philosophical thinking from an early age. This article explores strategic and program documents on children’s education and protection, as well as global research and practices in the “Philosophy for Children” program. It promotes using philosophical methods to develop thinking, studying, and differentiation skills.
