Parenting: Starting from the smallest things in life... Teaching Responsible Children

Recently, I went to two secondary schools in Hong Kong to give a talk. During the tea break after the talk, the teachers were very enthusiastic to talk to me about teaching issues. In particular, one of the teachers asked, "How to teach children a sense of responsibility? He said that his biggest frustration in teaching was not in the curriculum, but in the children's lack of a sense of responsibility. It is not a big deal if they do not put things back to their original places when they are finished using them, but if they see that the toilet is leaking and the faucet is not turned off, they will turn a blind eye to it as long as they did not do it. This old historian thinks that this is a serious character problem.

Message from the Principal - Developing Confidence and Affirmation through Sports

In a message from a parent, she shared that her baby was practicing hard at home for the field day performance of the Sukan, and some of them even proudly said that they were going to do seven moves, which was the most powerful, and I could imagine that the child's expression at that time should be full of self-confidence and the feeling of being affirmed. This year's Sports Day's highlight program for the older and middle school classes, "Gymnastics Heroes," featured seven moves, divided into seven groups according to the children's current abilities, and a special group of three, who performed a forward somersault on the kan, then a backward somersault, then a backward somersault, then a backward somersault on the kan.

Parenting] Nurturing Your Child's Motor Intelligence

While many people are advocating that children's learning should no longer emphasize on academics, and that the concept of Multiple Intelligences should be used as a blueprint for nurturing children, it is not difficult to find that among the eight areas of Multiple Intelligences, "Motor Intelligence" has been neglected by some parents. Parents generally think that if their children can walk and jump, they do not need to pay attention to the development of Motor Intelligence. In fact, do not think that people with Motor Intelligence only have developed limbs, and do not think that this kind of intelligence only belongs to athletes. If you do not want your child to

Message from the Director - It is our responsibility to fill the next generation with hope and future.

Over the past few days, the media has devoted a lot of space to the news of students occupying the Legislative Yuan to protest against the black-box passage of the service trade, which has attracted the attention of most people and the whole world. Of course, we can't just look at a social event, we have to think about the motivation behind the event. Why did this group of older children, who should have been attending classes at school, resort to such a radical act of resistance? Aren't they afraid of their parents' worries? Aren't they afraid of being penalized by the school? Or they might even be treated as a violent criminal.

Parenting】Safety of home care for young children

In his theory of "Hierarchy of Human Needs", psychologist Maslow (1954, 1970) categorized basic human needs into a number of levels (the earliest was five levels, but in recent years Maslow and his co-researchers revised it to seven and eight levels), and among these levels, apart from the initial "physiological needs", there is the "safety needs". According to scholars (Chen, 1997), "safety needs" are related to the environment.

A Word from the Director - Spring

Spring is the most beautiful season of the year, but it is also the most complicated and volatile. Since the beginning of spring, the weather has been so unpredictable, with hot and cold days, that you can get sick if you're not careful, so there are a lot of people suffering from colds and bronchitis, especially babies, and it's heartbreaking to watch. There is a proverb in Taiwan, "Spring after the mother face", which is also a good description of the characteristics of the changing weather in spring, "spring is not clear for three days", "not eat the Dragon Boat Festival dumplings, quilts do not send", so it can be seen that from ancient times, the first
