Philosophy for Children
Philosophy for Children (P4C) is an interdisciplinary program that offers courses on P4C methods and practice to CSUB students. The P4C program is sponsored by KIE and partners with local elementary schools and public libraries to offer free programing to local families.
P4C Curriculum: Resources for Students
P4C Program includes a robust curriculum on the CSUB campus which includes two courses:
Philosophy for Children
Practicum course
P4C Community Events
The P4C team offers monthly P4C conversations for 7–12-year-old children at public
libraries. We partner with Kern County Libraries to offer special programming for
One Book Kern events and Earth Day, and to organize a week-long P4C program during
summer.
