The Reggio Emilia approach is an educational philosophy focused on early childhood education. Originating in the city of Reggio Emilia, Italy, it emphasizes child-led learning, where children explore their interests through hands-on experiences. Teachers act as facilitators, guiding children in their discoveries and encouraging collaboration among peers. Central to the Reggio Emilia philosophy is the belief that children are capable and curious learners. The environment is designed to be inviting and stimulating, often referred to as the "third teacher." This approach values creativity, communication, and critical thinking, fostering a strong sense of community and respect for each child's unique perspective.
