Philosophy for Children
This site, created and maintained by Professor Thomas Wartenberg of the Department of Philosophy at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts, is subtitled "Philosophical Questions from Children’s Stories." It shows how educators and parents can use children’s literature as a springboard for philosophical discussions.
Philosophy Toolbox
Created by APA's Committee for Pre-College Instruction in Philosophy the tool kit is a dynamic web resource for teachers and students created by volunteers interested in promoting philosophy in the schools. Our current focus is at the high school level but the site will be expanded to include sections on elementary and middle school levels in 2008-2009. We welcome advice, contributions, and volunteers who will help this website become a virtual philosophy community for teachers and students.
