From a child's perspective, combine nature and healing to explore the wonders of nature. Recently, in Bridge Park, a group of children experienced nature through PARK WALK and "came to a hug" with spring.
In the opening warm-up activity, the children danced a cheerful circle dance under the leadership of Chen Yizhi, a national second-level psychological counselor. The children are focused on jumping and turning, stopping and stopping with the melody of the music, and while being in close contact with nature, they are gradually becoming familiar with the little friends around them.
Afterwards, everyone embarked on a journey of zero contact with nature, walking on the paths of the park, carefully observing the natural scenery in the park. Among the flowers and plants swaying in the wind, the children talked and felt at the same time, and immersed their bodies and minds in nature.
After careful observation, the children gave full play to their imagination as they bent over, stretched, and expressed with their bodies the process of a seed from germination to growth into a tree. As the body stretches, the "little saplings" seem to grow into strong trees, forming a small forest. Each child shared what kind of tree they are and what it means, they felt the power of life and understood the difficulty of growth.
In this vibrant and magical world, the children follow the storyline told by the teacher to interpret the story of the "Enchanted Forest". Butterflies, birds, bunnies...... The children worked with their partners to dance on the lawn, showing confidence and energy, as if they were really free animals in the forest.
Walking out of the "Enchanted Forest", the children raised their hands to share their feelings and feelings about nature. Every little creator has successfully completed this interpretation. After a brief sharing, the children once again danced in a circle to say goodbye to the "Enchanted Forest" trip. Finally, Mr. Chen guided the children to review today's journey and expressed his gratitude for all the encounters and gains.
It is reported that this event is an innovative attempt by the Yangpu District Working Committee for Women and Children to create child-friendly services in Daqiao Park, providing a platform for children to release their nature and explore themselves from the perspective of children. In the future, the Yangpu District Working Committee for Women and Children will continue to carry out various "children + nature" activities in Daqiao Park, so that more families can experience the charm and power of nature.
