This article wonders how reconsidering conceptions of time in research with children could expand and complicate notions of childhoods. Drawing on Karen Barad’s (2016, 2018) writing on temporal entanglements alongside Katherine Stockton’s (2009) discussion of growing sideways, research is reviewed and data from a participatory study reexamined. These divergent notions of temporality blur boundaries between childhood and adulthood and privilege perspectives often marginalized. The conclusion discusses implications of temporal orientations when researching with children including conceptions of pandemic time.

“Creepypasta,” short works of original horror fiction and frightening images created primarily by amateurs and shared in online communities of like-minded readers and writers, use the language of horror to encode and offer commentary on issues of contemporary concern. A close reading of an exemplary text, “Candle Cove,” demonstrates how this and other similarly themed creepypasta represent vernacular contributions to discussions of young people’s interactions with mass media that reflect a popular interest in both securing and disrupting the figure of the child constructed in media discourse.

The aim is to analyze how girls from a multi-ethnic area, not doing sports, reason about their well-being during leisure time, and how they think about physical activities, social relations, and their near future. The results say that they mainly regard leisure time as a moment for rest. They have close relations in primary groups but weaker secondary relations. They reveal stereotypical opinions about gender divisions in sports. Physical activity is unwanted and tiresome, if not part of playing.

This article presents the results of qualitative research conducted with 20 adoptees, specifically the experiences of four French adoptees from Romania, who discovered significant irregularities in their adoptions. In the form of four ethnographic cases followed by a discussion, it describes the adoptees' bewilderment at their pre-adoptive trajectories and discusses the absence of collective frameworks and narratives in France through which they could apprehend their individual trajectories.

In this empirical research, I investigated 16 kindergarten children’s perspectives on their friendships at school in a super-diverse classroom in Canada. A cultural-historical perspective and a “pedagogy of friendship” conceptual framework were drawn on in this research. In the study, the kindergarten children created drawings of their valued friendships. These visual representations revealed the importance of outdoor play and engagement as the catalyst for their development of authentic and valued peer friendships.

This paper reports from a study of intersubjectivity in a Danish nursery (“vuggestue”) for the 0-3 year olds. The study uses psychoanalytic infant observation. The concept of intersubjectivity is introduced from developmental psychology. Intersubjective moments depend on the adults’ mental participation in children’s interests and reactions. We know from developmental psychology that for children intersubjectivity is developmentally important and often joyful. The study shows how moments of play, sharing new experiences, participation in creative work, as well as mundane situations are potentially rich intersubjective moments. The study also shows how competence in verbal language expands the possibilities of intersubjective sharing.

While the mainstream discourses of global climate strikes focus on the issue of generational justice, the experience in the context of East Asia has been under-researched. This study explores the local experience and interpretation of this movement among the young activists in Taiwan. The results show that climate strike is currently impossible in Taiwan. This study discusses this from the intersectionality of age and culture, namely, obsession with academic performance, low awareness of the right to strike, and parental intervention. It also highlights the strategies that young activists employ to reduce these barriers.

This research aimed to evaluate young children’s engagement, participation and inclusion within a city museum by utilising observations and semi structured interviews with children and families. Both groups requested more interactive exhibits, sensory experiences, making and doing activities and role play opportunities. In this article, we argue for increased visibility of children’s ‘intangible heritage’ (Brookshaw, 2016) and opportunities for responding which make links with children’s lives contemporarily. We further argue that museums should view children as experiencers rather than learners.

A discussion on the ethical context and barriers to include children’s voices in research and clarify the role of Research Ethic Committees. Twenty-one researchers from eight countries participated in two focus groups and ten individual in-depth interviews. The results highlight the need for reforming ethical regulations to facilitate greater and more meaningful participation of children and adolescent in research. This reform, however, requires a paradigm shift to balance the notions of protecting children and adolescents from harm with empowerment and autonomy.
