Using simple text and fun illustrations to get your mind working, Children's Book of Philosophy will make big ideas easy to understand.

Another book to help encourage critical thinking in children and it's a WIN
Published by TeachingMama13 , 1 month ago
This book is awesome because it encourages kids to think for themselves which is a big thing and big deal and we encourage that in our household. Each question in the book has a couple of pages dedicated to them, bright colorful illustrations, and it gives enough information to the kids to think for themselves, to be more inquisitive, and to not only ask for more information but helps to encourage the "how" and "why". It helps us to reinforce the think about it, give it some more thought, let's explore this and go have a deeper conversation.
