The Reggio Emilia approach is not a method or a curriculum, it is a set of principles for integrating children’s development and social-cultural environment with the best theory and practice concerning children’s education. This approach has created great enthusiasm among parents, teachers and educators throughout the world’s educational community.
The Reggio Emilia approach to educating children brings about learning that is inspired by the richness of life. It constantly invokes a child’s sense of wonder, evokes his emotions, provokes his thought processes, and nurtures in him an intrinsic desire to learn.
