Suzanne Axelsson lives and works as a preschool teacher in Stockholm, Sweden.

The blog shares ideas, experiences and ponderings about working in the early years… close to her heart is risky play, listening, creativity (with a great deal happening in the atelier), exploring why we do what we do, as well as sharing images from other preschools she has been lucky enough to visit.

Suzanne is working at Filosofiska, Sweden’s first preschool with a philosophical profile, where she is developing how philosophy can act as a pedagogic tool for young children. Suzanne is presently collating information for a book about of how pre-philosophy can supporting children’s development and ability to successfully partake in philosophical dialogues.
