Children are natural "philosophers" who have a unique outlook on life and the world.

How do the kindergarten children who are about to enter primary school look at growth and how do they view life? What interesting multiple perspectives and unique ideas do they have?

Let's talk: about growing up

When you were a child, did you ever steal your mother's high heels, did you ever imitate the way your father worked, and did you have many "strange" funny things to imitate adults? These funny things are what we used to look forward to the future and look forward to growing up. "Graduation" is a story about growing up, the end of a story and the beginning of a new story. At such a special moment, what understanding do the children in the kindergarten understand growing up?

Grow taller, get heavier, change teeth, not afraid of the dark, fall asleep independently...

In countless moments of joy, children find themselves "growing up". For children, "growing up" is a beautiful and meaningful thing, it is not only in the appearance, but also in the accumulation of inner strength. It will grow like a seed in the heart. And this kind of power is the driving force behind growth.

Debate: Will you be able to succeed if you work hard?

Focus on Growth: The Philosophical Reflections of Wanhui Children

Because there are different views on the same thing, "arguments" often occur between children. Will you succeed if you work hard? This is a new debate for kids.

Counter-debaters: Pudding, Hirsch, Erguo

"When working, if the effort is not seen, it will not succeed."

"Studying well, but growing up may not be able to achieve your dreams."

"Raise your hand very hard, and you may not be able to ask questions."

"Hard work doesn't necessarily succeed, like fighting Lego, it may end up falling."

"The athletes worked hard, but a lot of them didn't get the gold medal."

……

Square debaters: Toot, Cocoa, Coke

"If you work hard, you will succeed!"

"If you don't study hard, you won't know anything later."

"If you don't succeed once, keep working hard until you succeed!"

"If you work hard every day, you will definitely succeed once."

"If the method is not right, correct the method and you can succeed."

Finally, there are debaters who try to summarize: efforts are not necessarily successful, but there must be gains; if the effort is not fruitful or successful, it may take a while to work hard.

The babies discussed, grouped, and determined the debates themselves, and engaged in a wonderful debate that lasted half an hour. Statements, rebuttals, you come and go very intensely. They follow the rules of the debate, listen intently to the arguments of their opponents, think about the views of different perspectives, find reasons for rebuttals and arguments, and express their arguments passionately. This is exactly the unique spirit that emits a unique light.

Effort does not necessarily lead to success, but it does lead to growth. Even if they may not succeed, babies still know how to continue to work hard after experiencing setbacks, use day after day of perseverance to reach victory, and reflect and find ways in time... Little babies have both the perseverance to cut through the waves and the open-mindedness to accept bravely.
