What is the Reggio Emilia Approach?

The Reggio Emilia Approach to education was started by the schools of Reggio Emilia, a city in Italy, after World War II and has become renowned as one of the best educational systems in the world.

This approach places emphasis on the arts as children’s symbolic language and engaging learning environment. The concept of equal collaboration among teachers, parents, and children along with the community are seen as co-constructors of knowledge.

Little Atelier understands that Reggio Emilia’s learning experiences are very creative and unique to their community, and it cannot be duplicated in our environment.

Admiring their philosophy about children and the perspectives about children’s expressive languages, Little Atelier builds our own unique, creative learning experiences with the children in our community.

Little Atelier - Points of Distinction:


-  Unlocking Unlimited Potential
We acknowledge children’s unlimited potential and value the child as strong, capable and resilient; rich with wonder and knowledge.

-  Fostering Curiosity & Interest
Every child brings with them deep curiosity and potential and this innate curiosity drives their interest to understand their world and the place within it.

-  Artistic Environment
We are to help them develop self-directed learning skills and learn the value of cooperation and empathy. We believe that environment is an important factor in children’s learning that it works as the “third teacher”.

-  Developing Creativity
This beautiful environment gives great motivation to children’s creativity and strengthens resilience to the world around them.
