In this workshop, we explore how children engage in metaphorical thinking when making sense of concepts relating to time, number and music. We compare their responses to those made by adults. Students will be invited to analyse the methods that are used to address this research question. The findings from this work provide insights int the important role played by metaphor in abstract thinking and the ways in which it develops in children.
