Hi, let us introduce ourselves: we are a group of twenty mothers living in the centre of Naples and we are attending a course of English language organized by our children's school.
We wish to be helpful to the several tourists crowding Naples in these years by giving them some suggestions about what to visit in this beautiful town.
There are lots of guides focused on adults' interests , but what about children? All of us know how it's hard travelling with children: visiting new places it's interesting and discovering them together with our chilren makes it even more pleasant.
But children soon get sick of museums and churches and a nice experience can turn into a nightmare if you aren't able to propose them amusing or diverting activities.
Our main aim is giving a hand to those tourists facing a journey with their little children by pointing out some attractions that can be interesting both for adults and children.
So, if you are interested in this topic, visit this blog in the next weeks: we are going to fill it with more and more information.

| « EXCAVATIONS OF POMPEI | THE VILLA COMUNALE » |
After having visited the Pompei excavations, your children will be curious to see what has been found there. The finds of Pompei and Herculanum are displayed in the National Archaelogical Museum of Naples, one of the most important cultural centres in the world in terms of the quantity and quality of Greek and Roman relics it contains.The museum bulding, constructed in 1585, is in the historical centre of Naples, in Piazza Museo. You can get there from the station by several buses and by underground also.
Most notable among the various exhibits and rooms are the Farnese Hercules; the Farnese Cup a splendid example of cameo, once a part of Medici collections; the Halls of Villa Papyri, where numerous sculptural exhibits are displayed, brought here from excavations a the Herculaneum villa; the Doryphorus, an admirable copy after the original by Polyclitus; Many of the mosaics come from the House of Faun located in Pompeii. Of the mosaics the most noted is the one depicting the Battle of Issus, which was fought between Alexander the Great and Persians who were ruled by King Darius. 
The frescoes located throughout the museum give us some wonderful insight into the everyday life in these cities during Ancient times. These paintings range from human sacrifices to burial rites to the beginning of spring.
Your children will be fascinated also by the Egyptian collection, where they will admire some mummies also, among which the one of the crocodile with its baby.
They will be guided through the rooms of the museum by two friends, Camilla and Napolino: two characters that, through their adventures, will explain to the young visitors, in a non-conventional way, 24 works of art.
