Children's perspective of their own participation in after-school care

• The aim with this paper is to present a research project which takes it´s standpoint from children’s perspective at after-school care. In thestudy we have worked together with children at three different after-school care units. We have worked with a so called mosaic approachwhich means that we have used different data gathering methods like interviews, map drawing and children’s photos of their unit. We havealso conducted ethnographic observations at the units. During the study we have invented the different data gathering methods bydiscussing them with children. In this paper we present results which focus upon children’s view of their own possibility for participation andwhat children themselves express they like to do in after-school care.
