This paper presents how Jean Piaget's cognitive development theory is implemented belatedly in Colombia during last decades of 20th century and beginning of 21st century. Piaget's work final dissemination in Colombia Final Piaget's work dissemination in Colombia, especially his cognitive development theory should be evaluated under certain possibility conditions, among them: firstly, the translation into Spanish of Jean Piaget's work until the first half of 1970's, so this author stopped being read by a few Colombian intellectuals for giving access to his theory to the teacher training institutions of the country; secondly, preschool education spread in Colombia, which required the establishment of a charter for early childhood where the cognitive development theory would play a critical role; and finally, the diffusion labor of the development theory, motivated by the Instituto Colombiano de Bienestar Familiar -ICBF- founded in 1968, the Ministry of Education and Unicef, in order to transform directly two social practices, i.e. school educational and parenting practices.
