This essay explores childhood education, storytelling, and the nature of myth from an Indigenous perspective. Aspects of Indigenous teaching and learning are discussed related to the ways myth and storytelling have traditionally functioned in Indigenous communities in the education of children. The deeper psychological nature of myth as an integral part of human learning, teaching, and socialization is also explored. These explorations form the basis for advocacy toward the re-vitalization of story as an essential foundation for intergenerational community education and as a component of global childhood education
