"Mom, I want to touch that ice pier." Doudou, 3 years and 9 months old, was diagnosed with new crown pneumonia by a teacher in his kindergarten, and more than 100 children, including Doudou, stayed in the quarantine hotel.

For adults, isolation is always accompanied by panic and anxiety; for the "beanie", everything seems a little fresh.

"Touch that ice pier"

Spring in Beijing is cool in the morning and evening, but it makes people sweat slightly at noon. The isolation hotel can not turn on the air conditioning, the bean mother will occasionally open the window for ventilation, and the indoor temperature is also suitable.

On the evening of April 30, the reporter heard The voice of Doudou for the first time in the voice call, and the interview with Doudou's mother was interrupted from time to time, "Mom played with me in the car" and "Mom, I want to touch the ice pier.".

Doudou's mother said that he was already asleep when the ice pier was sent, and when he saw it the next morning, he thought he had brought it from home, and later learned that it was given to him by his "uncle and aunt" here, so he kept asking, "Can I touch it?" "Can I take it with me?"

Staying in the quarantine hotel for three days, Doudou still feels fresh about everything here, and is also curious about the "uncle and aunt" who always give him gifts.

On April 30, "Uncle and Aunt" brought paintbrushes, cardboard, colored clay and toys. Among them, Doudou likes the color mud the most, uses it to pinch the car, and has been clamoring for his mother to play with him.

On the contrary, it is eaten, and Doudou does not care too much, but this is what my mother cares about most.

She recorded the day's meals: eggs, milk, porridge and cute little steamed buns for breakfast on the 30th, and lunch and dinner were "treated differently": the child's share was less oily, free of spicy, and cartoon-shaped staple food was added. One extra meal at 10am and 4pm each with fresh fruit and yogurt. On the evening of the 29th, the child also received a snack "gift package".

Sometimes, Doudou's mother would share his colored clay works with the class group, and soon set off a "competition tide". In the video, Doudou saw his familiar friends and followed the teacher to review the dumbbell exercises he had learned in kindergarten.

For isolation, Doudou seems to understand non-understanding, but because he believes that "there is a big virus outside", he rarely argues to go out.

"Didn't sleep well all night"

On April 29, Beijing reported that a new confirmed case in Fengtai District was a kindergarten teacher. The day before the official announcement, on the afternoon of April 28, Doudou's mother received a call informing her of isolation, fortunately, each child can be accompanied by 1 family member.

After almost four years as a mom, many movements have been muscular memory. Despite her nervousness, she was able to bring out exactly the same thing that should be brought with her among the many items she should bring: clothes that made Doudou feel comfortable, dishes that he loved most, snacks that he was not allowed to eat more, books and toys that would quiet him down temporarily, ear temperature guns, and common medicines.

"After packing up my things, I calmed down a bit, and I thought it was not a big deal."

Doudou and her mother live on the 15th floor, a standard room, the room is large, but the two single beds seem a little awkward - Doudou can't sleep alone yet.

Doudou's mother later learned that most of the people who came to accompany the quarantine were mothers, and many mothers like her that night, one person put together two single beds into a large bed with her bare hands.

Bean soon fell asleep. Only Mother Bean, with worries about the unknown, did not sleep well all night.

Mobilization of the whole society

Wang Xiao did not sleep well, she was about to be overwhelmed by a huge amount of information. Since the evening of April 28, when the child stayed in the quarantine hotel one after another, her WeChat has been in this state. As a small class teacher, I am faced with young children aged 3 to 4 years old, and there are naturally more problems to deal with.

"At first, everyone was a little flustered," said Wang Xiao, who received the quarantine notice at about the same time as his parents. This means that while dealing with the influx of parent phone calls and WeChat, she must quickly and accurately collect children's information to support the work of relevant departments.

Especially after entering the quarantined hotel, because of the limited mobility, the information collection can only be done online. Night after night, Wang Xiao's eyes hardly left the phone. "Fortunately, the parents are very cooperative, which also establishes a preliminary framework for the collection of relevant information later."

At the same time, the local streets coordinated all aspects of the force overnight to improve the software and hardware facilities of the isolated hotel.

Ren Zhifeng, member of the Majiapu Street Working Committee and director of the Armed Forces Department, is the main person in charge of this quarantine work. He frankly said that due to the lack of time, a lot of work is gradually improving.

For example, for the children's meal supply, they quickly coordinated the qualified enterprises that specialize in making nutritious meals for children, adjusting the dishes to suit the children's tastes and increasing the color and diversity.

At the same time, during the meal matching period, other work suspends the use of elevators, fully guarantees the needs of meals, and transports meals to various floors at the first time, and then distributes them from the floors to ensure that children can eat hot meals.

Adequate quantities of sanitize supplies and disinfectant cotton pads for children were distributed in each room. On the second night of the stay, Doudou and the children received ice mounds, fruit, milk and snacks.

"More arduous in the back"

It took less than a day for the adjustment measures to be put in place, and many parents updated their social media to express their understanding and recognition. "Today is a bit of a bottom, these two days my heart is like a rolling car, up and down." The director of the kindergarten told reporters.

However, as an educator, she has a deep insight into the characteristics of young children, and she knows that when the child's fresh energy has passed, "more arduous is behind." ”

The kindergarten has conducted online discussions on how to mobilize the emotions of parents and children and smoothly pass through the entire isolation period. According to the current plan, the relevant online activities will be put on the agenda immediately, through the form of games, so that teachers and children, children and children meet online, provide "cloud accompaniment", and soothe children's anxiety.

Because the isolation involves small, middle and large classes, children of different ages from 3 to 6 years old have different emphases on online activities for different levels of development. For example, small classes will pay more attention to cultivating self-care skills, communication skills and living hygiene habits.

The kindergarten has also established a temporary parent committee during the quarantine period, inviting willing parents to participate in mutual assistance. In particular, help is provided to families who are accompanied by the elderly in isolation, so that other family members outside can feel more at ease.

Hardware upgrades will also continue, and from May 1, the hotel will change from one elevator to five elevators at the same time to improve the operation capacity. The passenger elevator sanitize may corrode the internal steel plate, "We also studied for half a day, decided to put people first, and let's talk about other things later." Isolation hotel manager said.

The director believes that the experience of isolation is rare for everyone, especially for children, and hopes that through the efforts of so many people, children can harvest a valuable life experience.
