The Magnificence of a Developing Child
A famous Italian psychologist, Professor Loris Malaguzzi wrote: “It’s necessary that we believe that the child is very intelligent and competent, that the child is strong and beautiful and has very ambitious desires and requests. This is the image of the child that we need to hold.” (Loris Malaguzzi, Reggio Emilia 1993)
