Abstract
It is only recently that the spirituality of children as distinct from their religion has appeared as a subject of academic interest. This development permits us to investigate children's spirituality as an aspect of a more general category than that of religion. Spirituality is characterised here as a natural form of human awareness. Research evidence is offered to demonstrate that the ‘natural’ hypothesis is more resilient to scientific testing than other more reductionist interpretations of spirituality. The conceptual underpinning of a study of children's spirituality based on the hypothesis is described. The hypothesis appears to offer a fruitful way forward for research.
