Summer 2011 - Reggio Emilia, Italy “The Hundred Languages of Children”
We have to convince ourselves that it is essential to preserve in children (and in ourselves) the feeling of wonder and surprise. In fact, drawing, painting, and the use of all languages, are experiences and explorations of life, of the sense, and of meanings. They are an expression of urgency, desire, reassurance, research, hypotheses, readjustment, constructions and inventions. Loris Malaguzzi
The hundred languages are a metaphor for the extraordinary potential of children, their knowledge-building and creative processes, the myriad forms with which life is manifested and knowledge is constructed. - Principles of the educational project - Indications.
