Children's understanding of death has been a topic of interest to researchers investigating the development of children's thinking and clinicians focusing on children's coping with the death of a loved one. Traditionally, researchers in cognitive development have mainly focused on death from a biological perspective. Current research suggests that exploring religious and spiritual conceptualizations might enrich our understanding of how children come to think about death. In particular, we review different methodological approaches that suggest that children form their understanding of death by engaging in conversations and question asking with family members, consuming cultural products, and actively participating in cultural rituals. We also provide some examples on how children combine different belief systems to form their understanding of death. Finally, we discuss recent research on how socialization with regards to death might be related to coping and bereavement after the death of a loved one.
