La Pinuccia

T-our Experience

About this app

Pinuccia is an innovative educational video game that applies the "learning by doing" philosophy, seamlessly combining digital technology and hands-on activities in the local area. Children don't just play; they directly experience local traditions, learning firsthand the gestures passed down from our grandparents.

How the Integrated Experience Works:
The app introduces concepts and stories through interactive quizzes and treasure hunts, offering "Culture" and "Nature" itineraries to complete in the local area. The experiential workshops then allow children to experience what they've discovered in the digital game, creating a comprehensive educational ecosystem where families share precious learning moments.

Discovering Local Culture and Art:
Each village visited with Pinuccia tells centuries of history through its monuments, artisanal traditions, and artistic treasures. Children explore civic museums with Etruscan artifacts, discover the medieval architecture of historic centers, and immerse themselves in the stories of ancient castles. Art is not just to be admired, but to be understood and reinterpreted through creative activities that connect past and present.

Nature, Biodiversity, and Sustainability:
With Pinuccia as their special guide, children discover the fundamental importance of bees and pollinating insects for the survival of ecosystems. Through direct observation of local flora and fauna, they learn to recognize native species, understand natural cycles, and develop an ecological awareness. Environmental education activities teach principles of sustainability, respect for nature, and responsibility toward future generations, transforming each child into a small guardian of the environment. Nutrition education completes the program, teaching the importance of local products, seasonality, and the connection between healthy eating and respect for the ecosystem. Children discover the short supply chain, learn to recognize authentic flavors, and develop a lifelong awareness of food.

Creative and Educational Workshops:
Activities range from local culinary traditions (bread making, cheese making) to creative recycling workshops. Children learn artistic techniques, experiment with natural materials, develop creativity through manual art, and discover the secrets of beekeeping. Each workshop is designed to stimulate curiosity, manual dexterity, and a keen sense of observation.

Educational Objectives:
Each activity is designed to teach about sustainability, enhance local culture and traditions, strengthen family bonds, and instill a love of the local area in new generations. Children develop transversal skills while discovering the importance of bees to the ecosystem and the value of biodiversity.

First Destination: Trevignano Romano
An enchanting village at the foot of Mount Rocca Romana, chosen by Pinuccia for its terraced gardens full of wildflowers. Trevignano overlooks the mysterious Lake Bracciano: a perfectly circular volcanic lake, 160 meters deep, formed by a volcano extinct thousands of years ago. Its crystalline waters are home to an extraordinary biodiversity, from silvery fish to migratory birds, surrounded by reeds, wild orchids, and the Mediterranean flora that Pinuccia loves to explore.
