The main purpose of this paper is a reflection on common approaches to P4C and offering an alternative to the program based on Wilber theory of integral. Accordingly, it is argued that the alternative contains four quadrants and could be considered as a Holon. For Wilber all aspects of the reality should be counted as a whole. In this view, philosophy for children is a process like Socratic methods and research community as introduced by Lipman; is a historical approach as it could be found in the Gaarder's work, “Sophie's world”; is a philosophical story as elucidated in the Fischer's book entitled: “stories for thinking” and Piquemal work "the story of the philosophical world”; and is a cultural bounded program as enlightened by one of P4C leader in Danmark, Jespersen.
