One city, many children
Memories of a present history |
The story about the creation and the development of
the Preschools and Infant-toddler Centres in Reggio Emilia:
a broad research project which joined together voices
and thoughts of many different protagonists.
A collective self-biography, a passionate story interconnected
with other stories in a long, thin plot made of silk threads as
Loris Malaguzzi used to say: such a story can be presented
like a story which clearly crossed the years and the seasons…
instead experiences like this, so anomalous, are always
walking on silk threads.
With interviews and texts by Renzo Bonazzi, Simona Bonilauri,
Ettore Borghi, Jerome Bruner, Antonio Canovi, Luciano Corradini,
Gunilla Dahlberg, Graziano Delrio, Paul Ginsborg,
Loris Malaguzzi, Carla Rinaldi, Vea Vecchi.
Edited by Rolando Baldini, Ilaria Cavallini and Vania Vecchi |

| Dialogues with
Places |
Every
place has a soul, an identity. Trying to discover
it and relate to it means also learning to
recognise our own soul. Children in infant-toddler
centres and preschools explored the Loris
Malaguzzi International Centre while work
was still in progress.They chose a space that
was interesting for them and designed a work
of art, a gift, created in dialogue and empathy
with their chosen place. Taken from the Dialogues
with Places exhibition, children’s experience
and projects are presented in the form of
a work notebook.

The languages
of food Recipes, experiences
and thoughts |
Pedagogy
and a culture of eating from the kitchens
of Reggio Emilia’s
municipal infant-toddler centres and preschools.
Reggio Emilia’s decision to maintain
kitchens in each municipal infant-toddler
centre and preschool has always been of pedagogical
and cultural significance. These kitchens
constitute a kind of “gastronomic resistance”,
safeguarding diversity and maintaining value
and respect for different tastes, faith-based
choices and health indicators. Kitchens are
places for listening to families and customs,
and orient us in the direction of community
at the same time. Community meals become a
space, a place of relationship and meeting
with the world. From this context we have
created a book of recipes, experiences, projects
and thinking.
