At present, except for a few newborns who come to kindergarten in the morning and still cry due to separation anxiety, most children come to kindergarten with smiles and joy, looking forward to interactions with friends, learning, doing physical fitness, playing games, swimming, and other experiences that they cannot get at home.
In addition to the regular school life, the Summer School arranges a special outing once a week to expand and enrich the children's learning horizons and give them a sense of relaxation. Outings are very attractive to the children. Whenever they hear that there will be an outdoor activity tomorrow, even the children with separation anxiety can restrain themselves from shifting their emotions and put themselves in the best state, so that they can follow the footsteps and go out with the others with a joyful heart in the early morning of the same day.
Wednesday's trip to the Children's Welfare Center was an enriching one, with everyone going out happily and returning home safely. In addition to informing parents in writing twice before the trip, we also let the children themselves know what they should pay attention to, such as wearing masks, socks, handkerchiefs, and health care, as well as the fact that they could not participate if they were sick, etc., which they remembered and were able to comply with. They took three tour buses and arrived at 9:20 p.m. They got off the bus at the roadside in front of the Children's Welfare Center and walked under the sunshine in the plaza in front of the Center to the entrance of the Children's Welfare Center, where the staff was waiting for them. The children lined up in an orderly manner and took out their thermometers to measure their temperatures one by one - 37.2, 38, 38.1, 37.5. ....
The staff told the teachers that the children's body temperatures were over the limit and they could not enter; the children looked helpless (they had been measured at the kindergarten and they were normal) and told the staff that they had just gone into the shade and would be measured again later, and it was really a false alarm and they were fine.
After making a few reminders to put on the masks and not to show the nose, and introducing the facilities of each area of the museum, we took the elevator to the Children's Museum on the third floor. Since we could not bring anything inside the museum, we had to put our backpacks in the rest area with little space, and then started the exploration activities in the museum under the guidance of the teachers. After a short break to enjoy the red yeast biscuits prepared by the director, we continued our exploration.
When planning a full day trip, the first thing to overcome is where to eat and dine. Since the Children's Center is closed for lunch breaks and visitors have to leave, it takes some effort to coordinate and communicate. If you ask, you have a chance to get things done, and if you are honest about your needs, nothing is too difficult to accomplish. Thank you to the people who worked with us to make this outdoor education trip a smooth and enjoyable one.
Have a safe and happy family.
