The Museum of Liverpool delivers several supervised public sessions in Little Liverpool every day. Little Liverpool is often visited by children on visits from schools, local nurseries and child-minding groups. We worked with around 500 local children to develop the look, feel and focus of the gallery and applied the principles of Reggio Emilia to embed a child-centred approach through creative, child-directed spaces and sightlines.
Before our visitors enter Little Liverpool, they are introduced to Winnie the Spider, a friendly character who not only welcomes them to the session but also helps children navigate the rest of the museum. Sessions are around 30 minutes and, apart from a child-focused introduction and welcome and a dance and tidy-up at the end, they are very much self-led.
