What preschool is like: children’s interviews, photographs, and picture selections from two different contexts
2014
Research on children’s perspectives emerged when the United Nations Convention
on the Rights of the Child, Article 12, declared that children had the right to express
their views freely and to be heard (UN General Assembly, 1989 ). Consequently,
researchers in Denmark, Iceland, New Zealand, and other countries made a paradigm shift in how children were understood (Einarsdottir, 2005 , 2007 , 2010 ; Einarsdottir et al ., 2009 ; Formosinho and Araujo, 2006 ; Peters and Kelly, 2011 ). According
to a rights-based perspective, children are viewed as competent social actors who can
express their opinions, views, and experiences (Einarsdottir, 2010 ; Formosinho and
Araujo, 2006 ; Harcourt and Einarsdottir, 2011 ; Peters and Kelly, 2011 ).
