Abstract :This study presents a discussion of the Reggio Emilia approach, one of the unique approaches applied in early childhood education. Information was given about the physical structure, art, teacher, atelierista, documentation and projects conducted in the school implementing this approach. In the paper, examples of observational studies to examine the Reggio Emilia approach are presented. It was suggested that making necessary physical arrangements by examining the Reggio Emilia approach's features and the principles of these features, a richer educational environment in preschool education institutions could be created. It was also suggested that preschool education could be more effective and qualified if these features were recognized by the program developers, educators and teachers. Finally, based on the analysis of this approach, some suggestions for teachers and program administrators are made.Keywords : Reggio Emilia Approach, Early Childhood Education, Education Programs
