Résumé :	This study examines whether anthropomorphism - giving nonhuman entities human attributes - can make complex learning more engaging, memorable and meaningful for children. A qualitative analysis of previous works develops insights to guide appropriate anthropomorphism use. Chapter One situates anthropomorphism historically and culturally. Chapter Two analyzes how anthropomorphism shapes learning through content analysis of children literature. Chapter Three develops guidelines for maximizing anthropomorphism's educational benefits while minimizing risks. Findings indicate that when applied carefully, anthropomorphism augments learning by embedding concepts within vivid metaphors and narratives that stimulate children's imaginations. However, transparent and tailored use is essential to avoid oversimplifying complex ideas or distorting conceptual accuracy. When based on rigorous research and expertise, anthropomorphism emerges as a promising pedagogical tool that integrates imagination with conceptual understanding. Yet judicious application requires considering diverse learners' cognitive and socioemotional needs. The study addresses gaps regarding appropriate anthropomorphism use. Insights offer valuable perspectives for developing effective, ethical instructional strategies that leverage anthropomorphism's potential while safeguarding conceptual integrity. With research-based design tailored for diverse learners, anthropomorphism shows promise for cultivating minds that perceive complexity and discover truth
