What do we know about what children know about their own knowledge and learning? What do children do about their knowledge? And how do they understand these things? For centuries, these questions have concerned those involved with young children. This paper offers an overview of the philosophies and influences which have underpinned research into the metacognitive abilities of young children during the last two decades. The implications of this research for current teaching practice will be discussed, and concerns and suggestions for the future will be offered. Recently, a number of comments have niggled at my consciousness; comments like those of Beverley Lambert (1992, p. 139) who suggests that, if the concept of cognitive development within ‘developmentally appropriate practice’ (Bredekamp, 1987, p.2–3) is based on Piagetian theory as she suspects, then ‘the field of early childhood education needs to reexamine its whole approach to the teaching-learning process.’ Comments from Di Catherwood (1994, p.25), who challenges researchers and practitioners to ‘reappraise the premises regarding early cognition that underlie early childhood education.’ And, from Mary Jane Drummond (1989, p.6), the disclosure that early childhood educators are concealing a ‘conceptual vacuum at the centre of our work.’ How can we begin to answer these criticisms and move forward from our present research base? How can the developing metacognitive abilities of our children be enhanced?

Research in education has previously been dominated by what Law (2007) terms the “hygienic forms” (p. 33). Hygienic forms apply to positivistic quantitative traditions which claim supremacy over other forms of knowing. In this methodological paper we report on a phenomenon auto-driven visual elicitation approach of an on going research which attempts to make sense of how children (3-5 year olds) in cross-cultural settings understand risk and safety situations in their settings. We reflect on the concern for contextual reflexivity, emanating from the notion that research activity in early childhood education is “in danger of succumbing to political ideology and methodological fashion” (Prosser & Loxley, 2007, p. 1). We argue that research into early childhood education needs to acknowledge the implicit tensions between conventional empirical research and the politics of research methodology and that researchers cannot bring to the fore everything that is there to be known about child development and learning through orthodox mechanistic means. There are quotidian aspects of children's experiences, development and learning which can best be captured by visual methods that combine other approaches like interviews and observations. The paper concludes with some reflections on the ethical dilemmas and validity issues that confront the researcher when the visual and digital are used across cultures with children.
