Raising children starts with traveling (1)

Read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, interact with thousands of people, take your children to nature, and let them realize the value of life while walking and traveling. Kidnapped by various training classes and various assignments.

Traveling is not tourism. Be an interesting traveler and turn the journey into a story about growing up with your children. Therefore, be slower, learn to waste time, know how to let go, allow your children to face and solve problems on their own, and be ready to provide your children with necessary help and support at any time.

Mobile phones, cameras, camcorders, books, graffiti notebooks, companion toys and RMB are all indispensable. We can train our children's perseverance and give them hardships to help poor families get rich, but we cannot really let ourselves and our children fall into financial difficulties.

Each trip has a theme. When setting off, the children will have a desire in their hearts, which is conducive to a profound experience. During the journey, both intersection and independence need to exist at the same time, taking care of each other and not being too involved.

Travel originates from curiosity about the world. Ultimately, it is to discover and achieve the best version of yourself. It is a process of experience. Traveling does not necessarily mean going to a distant place, it just means that you see, think, and feel something in an instant... What we need to practice is the heart after all!

My insights:

1. Children’s life is children’s education. Don’t kidnap your children prematurely to learn various pan-professional specialties in various training classes. Let your children have more contact with nature, cultivate a heart that respects all things and a pair of eyes that can discover beauty and the joy of life, which is better for the health of your children. growing up.

2. Since a child’s emotional brain develops earlier than his rational brain, experiential learning is more conducive to cultivating an outstanding child who is independent, autonomous and self-disciplined, rather than spending all his time talking about truth. In addition, learning by playing and playing while learning can also maintain children's interest in learning for a long time.
