Explora
is the first educational museum for children
aged 0-12 years.
It is
located in the Municipal spaces of the former
ATAC bus
depot, not far from Piazza del Popolo, known
as the Spazio Flaminio.
This
is part of the Borghetto Flaminio, a neighbourhood
which provides an important example of urban requalification
in what was previously a run-down area.
The
exhibition space is designed as a 'children's
city' where all the material can be handled and
played with, with a strong emphasis on everyday life,
making it possible for the young visitors to enter into
direct contact with those aspects of reality which normally
belong to the adult world.
The itinerary
is divided into four sections, in which visitors
can play and experiment with the help of animators.
The
first section, devoted to knowledge of the human
body and space, is devoted to children of
0-3 years; space is illustrated through the organization
of the home, refuse sorting and recycling, and the solar
panel which produces energy from the sun; "society"
and everyday activities are described via the reproduction
of a supermarket, food and its transformations, firemen
etc; the world of communication is represented by structures
and technologies such as the study of television,
the bank, the post office, the subsoil
and its underground networks and the telephone.
Here
children may actively participate in the production
of a TV programme, changing a wheel in a garage,
learning to use and economize on water etc.
The aim
of the museum, apart from generating children's
interest in subjects of notable importance, is to encourage
and aid learning through practical activities, play
and socialization
