Let's go to Bologna

Hi! My name is Ben, and I am 8 years old. I want to tell you about my trip to Bologna! It was so cool because I learned about a lady named Emilia. She did a lot of great things and was really famous there.

One of the best parts of my visit was going to the Archiginnasio of Bologna. It used to be a school, and Emilia had a big influence on education. The building was super old and had lots of books and cool decorations. I felt like I was in a storybook!

We also saw a special room called the Anatomical Theatre. It was where doctors used to learn about the human body. The room had wooden statues and lots of seats like a mini stadium. I imagined people learning there many years ago, and it was amazing!

There was so much to see and do in Bologna, and learning about Emilia made it even more special. I can't wait to go back and see more places.

My Favourite Band

Hi everyone! Today, I want to tell you about my favorite band, Emilia! I love them so much because their music is really fun and makes me happy. My favorite song by Emilia is called "Dancing in the Stars." It's super cool and I always dance to it in my room.

One thing I like about Emilia is that they have three members. Their names are Emma, Mia, and Liam. Isn't that funny how their names make up the band name? They also play different instruments. Emma plays the guitar, Mia plays the keyboard, and Liam plays the drums. They are all so talented!

Another interesting fact is that they write their own songs. That means they come up with the words and the music all by themselves. I think that's amazing because it must be really hard to do. They also have a pet cat named Melody who sometimes appears in their music videos. I think Melody is so cute!

Emilia's music always makes me feel good. Whenever I am sad or tired, I listen to their songs and it makes me feel better. I hope you get a chance to listen to them too!
