Because I often go to the kindergarten to pick up my grandchildren, I can often enjoy the "style painting" in front of the door.
Parents originally went to the door of the classroom to pick up their children, but because of the prevention and control of the new crown epidemic, they can only stop at the gate in front of the park, and the children are led out by the teachers, which inadvertently enriches the style in front of the door. It's not worth exaggerating, but it's worth saying.
To say that in the style of the kindergarten door, the most warm moving comics, when the children see the parents' heartfelt joy. The courtyard wall of the kindergarten is a wrought-through wall, and as long as the children step out of the teaching building, they will see their families coming to pick up their families through the courtyard wall, so they will shout loudly: "Daddy, Mommy", "Grandpa, Grandma", "Grandma, Grandpa". Some children shouted three or two times, and some children shouted endlessly, making the shouts at that moment rise and fall, incessantly. I listened to the childish shouts filled with joy, I saw the innocence in the joyful expression, and the style painting that came into view always made me feel infinite warmth in my heart.
Among the parents who pick up the children, there are employees of state-owned enterprises, white-collar workers of private enterprises, housewives, and civil servants of government organs, but more are the elderly who have retired at home. These old people said that they were not too old, most of them were in their sixties as I was, and their arms and legs were still sharp, otherwise the children would not have entrusted them to pick up the children.
Waiting to pick up my grandchildren, I don't like to crowd in front of the door, but I like to stand alone not far away to watch the style in front of the door, observe the color and look at the temperament, and can taste a lot of interesting things. Some parents have a more exposed personality, seeing their children walking to the courtyard, they will also "shout" like children; some parents are more anxious, when they come to pick up their children, they are not waiting in front of the kindergarten door, but first run to the south gate closer to the teaching building, see the children walk out of the teaching building, and then turn around and run to the west gate to wait. When parents receive their children, most of their expressions are smiling with love, but their actions are different. Some people take the child's school bag and lead the child to turn away; some immediately pick up the child and kiss it twice; and some leave to thank the teacher who sent the child, I am one of the people who never forget to thank the teacher.
Among the vehicles that pick up and drop off the children are BMW and Mercedes-Benz; there are cars, commercial vehicles, and of course, battery cars. Whenever it is time to pick up children, the kindergarten is parked around the car, making the road surface, which is not too spacious, often appears more congested. Our home is not too far from the kindergarten, but it is not too close, but it is very convenient to take the bus. There is a bus stop outside the gate of the compound here, and the kindergarten is opposite the station over there. Every time I go to pick up my grandchildren, I mostly take the bus back and forth.
In addition to parents, there is also a group of regular people in front of the kindergarten, that is, promoters and small traders who send advertising brochures. The content of the advertising album is mostly some preschool education, what dance, art, taekwondo, English, writing, fitness exercises, etc., can be described as various. There is a vendor selling rock sugar gourds who is a regular customer in front of the kindergarten, and I can often see him. His rock candy reeds include hawthorn, oranges, yams, strawberries, and marshmallows, for four to six dollars. I once talked to him and learned that he was a farmer in Zaozhuang and was alone in Jinan to engage in this small business. I asked him how many skewers he could sell every day, and he replied that there were thirty or fifty skewers, and that they could sell more in the summer. He is a mobile vendor, going to Quancheng Square every morning for half a day, and returning to his residence in the afternoon to take a special detour so that he can stop for a while in front of the kindergarten door, so that he can sell three or five strings.
The children who enter the kindergarten, every afternoon when they leave the kindergarten, expect their parents to appear first, and the parents are of course trying to meet the children's wishes as much as possible, so every afternoon before 4:30 p.m., the sidewalk in front of the kindergarten is full of waiting parents. The same is true of me, whether on foot, by bus, taxi, I will definitely arrive at the kindergarten before 4:30. I haven't been late, but I can see the embarrassment of late parents almost every day. When the teacher brings the children to the front of the kindergarten, they are handed over to the parents one-on-one. If you can't see your child's parents, you will let your child wait in the park and stay with you until the child's parents show up to complete the handover.
Parents are late and teachers may be able to understand, but some children are not happy, and after seeing parents, they will be spoiled and cry, and parents are busy coaxing and persuading. A few days ago, Jinan encountered extremely cold weather, several parents were late, although the time was only a few minutes, or even tens of seconds, but I think that the children's crying must make them feel particularly uncomfortable.
The kindergarten under the sunset, the front door is like a style painting, I am both a person in the painting and an outsider. Whether it is the person in the painting or the outsider, the innocence of the children and the love of the parents will make me feel the emotion of "don't have some happiness in my heart".
