The document summarizes an exhibition at the Comune di Piacenza about nursery schools. It describes various activities that children engage in at nursery schools, such as playing outdoors, exploring water, interacting with nature, using their imagination, and storytelling. It also mentions that playing together is more interesting than playing alone, as children can discover, share ideas, and learn from one another. The exhibition was created with input from educators and parents to showcase the educational experiences and activities provided at nursery schools.
