What is it about?
We should understand children in their nonverbal, creative approach to the world in order to get to know the richness of their educational process. The example of children's drawings shows how children can be understood not only as philosophers but as artists.

Why is it important?
Previous research approaches the child's education process above all through the child's verbal judgments, thereby giving away the richest part of the child's access to the world. In the tradition of Piaget, we saw the child only as a philosopher, through our reconstructive methods we put the child as an artist in view.
Perspectives
The essay is the summary of a long-term research co-operation and is intended to serve both heuristically and methodically the opening of a new approach to education processes in the childhood.
