Philosophy for children is an educational movement that includes diverse goals that are not always clearly articulated by theorists and practitioners. In order to navigate the multitude of aims found in the philosophy for children literature I propose distinguishing between the following categories of goals: aims of education; educational goals of philosophy for children (internal and external); goals of a community of philosophical inquiry (procedural, epistemic, encounter, community, telos); goals of the facilitator; and goals of the children. The definitions of these various types are given along with some examples of how the distinctions between them can be of aid in understanding the approaches, criticisms, and practice of philosophy for children.

儿童哲学目标的类别

儿童哲学是一项教育运动，其中包括理论家和实践者并不总是清楚阐明的各种目标。为了驾驭儿童文学​​哲学中的众多目标，我建议区分以下几类目标：教育目标；儿童哲学的教育目标（内部和外部）；哲学探究社区的目标（程序性、认知性、相遇、社区、最终目的）；协调人的目标；和孩子们的目标。给出了这些不同类型的定义以及一些示例，说明它们之间的区别如何有助于理解儿童哲学的方法、批评和实践。
