2017 Family Travel Guide

Parent-child travel is definitely a try for many young families. You can take your children to explore and take risks in the outside world together, and dig deeper during the journey, which is very beneficial to the growth of your children. Positive influence, let me share with you the 2017 family travel guide.

Natural Color

From Rousseau to Walden Pond, I increasingly feel that I am a person with a "naturalistic" tendency. So I have a good impression of things that conform to nature and are close to nature. When I read this book, I learned about the term "natural education". ?

It is said that "reading thousands of books means traveling thousands of miles." Reading and walking are two indispensable ways of understanding the world and oneself in a person's growth. ?

The way we understand the world is not just the words, stories and symbols in books, which are all abstract and vague. The way children understand things is mostly intuitive and experiential. Therefore, their understanding of the world is to gain real perception. ?

Of course, I also claim to be a person who loves to travel, and I see things on the road. People always want to see different scenery, the customs and customs of different places, and the exotic customs of different cultures and races. The world is different and colorful depending on where your heart is. ?

And richer than natural. The scene of the changing seasons, the blooming and withering of flowers and trees in the four seasons, the ripeness and taste of fruits and vegetables, the color and posture of flowers and plants, the passing of wind, frost, snow and rain, the magnanimity and color of rivers, lakes and seas, the changing clouds, the flowers, birds, insects, fish and birds in the world. animals, or even the rainbow reflected in the water?

Nature and art

What if If books are symbolic records of knowledge, then they are naturally real classrooms. Watching the color changes and falling of leaves speaks of the change and death of the human world, or of transformation and growth. Smell the scent of flowers and plants, and let the smell perceived by your sense of smell register in your heart. Listening to animal stories, the law of the jungle is the rule of social competition and evolution. The truth is empty, not as realistic as nature!?

My son and I are both Sagittarius, and it is said that they are naturally playful and love freedom. If you want to travel with a snail, you can grow together. Let children's curiosity inspire your own thirst for knowledge. ?

Games at the seaside? At the end of December 2014, when my son turned two years old, we decided to give him a trip as a birthday gift. That winter, we chose the “warm” Sanya. The main consideration is that you will not feel uncomfortable due to the cold, nor will it be inconvenient to play because of bulky clothing. Of course, there is also beach sand that children love, suitable for swimming and playing in the sand.

That was also my first time to Sanya. The wind is light and the clouds are light, a bit hot, just like summer. The coastline of Yalong Bay is beautiful. The hotel's children's play equipment is also very comprehensive.

With the snails, we didn’t go to scenic spots. We just ran on the beach and in the hotel’s large garden, and then swam. It's also nice to be slowed down. Feel the wind, see the clouds, listen to the waves, and see the colors of the sunset. ?

Waiting for the boat to return, I thought of the "Little Snail"

Playing in the sand with socks on

That At that time, he had a "geophobia" and did not want sand to stick to his feet. Not willing to take off shoes. Finally, I was finally induced to wear socks and walk on the beach. It's like being separated from the soil, getting used to the cement asphalt roads in the city, and no longer dare to let bare feet touch the mud and sand.

That’s not “dirty”, but the texture and feel of dust, dirt, and gravel. ?

At that time, I saw a lot of shells, listened to conch shells, blew the conch whistle, cheered for the water splashing by the speedboat, and was eager to try the waves that washed over me, but I still didn't dare to walk into the water. ?

That was also the first time I drank coconut. It's round, leave a hole, and insert a straw to drink. Sweet and cool. Later, I drank it in Xiaomeisha in Shenzhen and by the West Lake in Hangzhou, but it was not as good as the one in Sanya. This is the taste of the place of origin. ?

At the beach, the most common game is to play in the sand. Due to the plasticity of sand, it can be combined with various imaginations, and the pyramid was built and then rebuilt again. This way you can have a great time. ?

I went to Shenzhen several times later. The most comfortable thing is to ride a bicycle in Shenzhen Bay. A family of three rode a three-seater bicycle to compete with others and exercise their parents.

The beach in Shenzhen Bay is full of real big rocks, but there is an extra stone-throwing game. Compete with me to see who can touch the farthest into the sea. Then I helped him walk carefully on the rocks. ?

The big rocks in Shenzhen Bay

This unconventional "road" is like a dangerous adventure. If you need support and courage, you will know what the potential dangers are, how to balance yourself and find help. ?

Of course, there are many wild ducks in the mangrove area. Dots of stars float on the water. Some dive down for a while and then reveal their small heads. ?

It wasn’t until I went to Dalian this year that he was willing to stand barefoot on the pebbled beach and feel the waves crashing with me. When I go to Dalian, my favorite thing is the wooden plank road along Binhai Road, from Xinghai Bay to Bangchui Island and then to Donghai Park. The scenery continued along the way, and more importantly, we chose to hike.

On the speedboat, I didn’t dare to take pictures for fear of dropping my phone in the water!

How to mobilize a four-year-old child’s enthusiasm for running on foot really needs to be understood Proper temperament guidance and encouragement. That day, starting from a bunch of candied haws, I walked and ran intermittently for almost two kilometers. We just played the game of "catch up with me". We forgot about being tired while playing, and we walked for so long without realizing it. ?

Later we took a bus to Donghai Park and climbed to the sea viewing platform halfway up the mountain. He was rewarded with a bottle of bubble water to play with. On the way up the mountain, there are models of marine animals, such as sharks, crabs, sea anemones, octopuses, etc. Although the piles are relatively rough, they are also intuitive. Coupled with the popularity of "Undersea Column" before, everyone is basically familiar with it. ?

Before I was two years old, I went to the Haichang Polar Museum in Tanggu and saw little penguins, dolphin shows, white sharks, and many other fish. I fell asleep on my shoulder while waiting for the White Shark show. I think I was so young at that time that I don’t even remember it. ?

Jellyfish

On the sea viewing platform, you can see a sailboat on the sea and a cargo ship in the distance. On the downhill road, we chose a battery car and went directly to the entrance of Bangchui Island Scenic Area. ?

This time, my bare feet got wet. The key is that we also tried the feeling of a speedboat. The young man's face remained calm and extremely calm. When he was approaching the shore, he almost narrowed his eyes. ?

Then we went to Lushun to see the warships. My father used to have the habit of reading military magazines because he has a father who was a soldier, so this can be passed down. Some time ago, the child always liked to imitate the stinking movements of skunks. As a result, his father actually saw a fighter jet produced by the "Skunk" company on TV with him. This association ability is also first-rate. ?

I went to Dalian and tried some "iron plate squid" with me. One was really big. This is better than what I had in Xiamen before. I adhere to the "principle of origin". ?

I have been to Xiamen twice. For the first time, I took him alone from Shenzhen to Xiamen and back to Shanghai. I stayed in Xiamen for a few days in early March of the next year. After doing some planning, we headed straight to Baicheng Beach at Xiamen University. Cycling by the seaside is a regular activity. Smell the sea breeze and feel a little speed. ?

Two "eagles" on the beach

After returning the car, we went to Alishan Fort. For a boy, even if his mother takes him with him, it is indispensable to see the red cannon here. Only when you climb the fort and the tower can you see the grand scene of the war at sea. ?

The first time I went to the fort, I was really young!

The second time I went, the father should have explained more. There, there was a model of a ship and a small fishing boat. Because it is right under the shade of a tree, it becomes a place for children to play, and just right for parents to sit and rest for a while. ?

The children themselves ran to sail the boat and fire the cannonballs. Or pretend to be a pirate ship and go on a treasure hunt. ?

Stayed on Gulangyu Island for two days. Taking a boat from the pier is also a good experience. There are music schools, piano museums, and tambourine music that can be heard everywhere on Gulangyu Island. It can be regarded as a kind of edification. We carried a ukulele back from there. The kids took a fancy to it and carried it all the way to the plane. ?

Gulangyu Island There is a tunnel on the seaside. I don’t know why children like tunnels. Whenever they pass through a tunnel, they will exclaim, “Look, tunnel!” Maybe they are watching Thomas the Tank Engine. Or I feel that the change of light and dark is very strange. ?

That time, the wind at the piano museum was very strong, and the waves hit the stone wall and flew very high, and they all fell on the stone steps climbing up. He just had to watch it many times. It's also fun to walk on the waterside pavilion corridor, so close to the water. ?

Here, you don’t have to worry about eating. There is everything you need in the snack street. Nougat, sugar in glass bottles, juice, clam omelette, sand tea noodles, lotus mist and passion fruit. ?

A seaside, a scenery. ?

A summary of beach games: playing in the sand, throwing stones, riding a speedboat, chasing waves, hiking, watching "the waves crashing on the shore and rolling up thousands of piles of snow", graffiti on the branches of the beach , drinking coconut juice and blowing the sea breeze, half-day tour of the military port fort, pirate role play, simulated naval battle, seaside riding, underwater animal rescue operation?, go-kart, riding the "old-fashioned" tram

Crossing the "sea of ??clouds" in Cangshan Mountain "

Playing by the lake?

After passing Sanya, I was thinking about "Colorful Yunnan". In mid-to-late April, I took my baby alone and went straight to Dali. Because of the impression of Yunnan, I also longed for the purity and tranquility of Erhai Lake. At that time, a friend settled in Dali. Travel and meet friends, killing two birds with one stone.

The Erhai Lake is not a sea, but the confluence of streams from 13 peaks in Dali made. Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake are full of wind, flowers, snow and moon. Full of romantic feelings. The wind, flowers, snow and moon in the south of colorful clouds. ?

There are not many surprises in the ancient city, but Erhai Lake really shocked me. People suddenly put aside their impetuosity and became peaceful by the blue and calm lake. Starting from Caicun Pier, it was not easy to find a bicycle for rent that could take the baby with me. So, it was my first time riding with my baby. He was also very happy and tried his best to tell me to "go faster, go faster!" Later, cycling became one of our walking habits. ?

I like the tranquility, the trees in the water, the mountains across the Erhai Lake, the clouds descending from Cangshan Mountain in the sky, the broad fields, and the quiet small villages. You can’t get enough of the changing clouds here. A picturesque place to take a deep breath. I want to sink the smell of water and trees into my heart. ?

We went to Shuanglang again because of its reputation. At that time, only some parts were under construction. After having the experience of taking a boat in Xiamen, the children must make a small boat. But there are no large, stable cruise ships on the Erhai Sea; instead, there are many small fishing boats holding oars. I sat down with a trying attitude. ?

The boat swayed up and down on the Erhai Sea, just like a small boat swaying with the waves. The waves are almost flush with the body. The girls taking pictures on the bow of the boat would exclaim in fright. Our kids were very calm and found it fun. It seems that adventure is human nature, and fun is an open mind that is willing to try, coexisting with courage. This may have paved the way for him to dare to take a speedboat later. ?

How much of a child’s growth has sapped the courage and courage to explore for the sake of “safety” that parents think. Sand and stones have bacteria and cannot be played with! Animals have germs and cannot be touched! Bare feet are not clean and can be easily injured! Things that can be played with must be safe, and they are basically replicas of the same props, fake!?

Nowadays, I can’t even answer the question “Can this pterosaur fly?” I can’t answer my children’s question: Yes, the toy definitely can’t fly. Saying it can't go against the truth. All we can say is that this toy is a fake pterosaur and it cannot fly. You can carry it with your hands to fly!?

Of course the real pterosaur can no longer be seen. But other animals and plants can. Just like playing with water when he was a child, I would fill a basin of water for him to play with at home. But slowly, the water gathers into rivers, lakes and seas, with different feelings, different edges, and fountains and waterfalls, which need to be truly experienced. ?

The rocking of the "little boat" did not bring fear. Most of children's fears are an extension of the "dangers" set by adults. Later, I went on a cruise on the West Lake and found it really boring. There are many people, it is calm and monotonous. When the kids went there, they didn’t say they wanted to sit down. ?

After Shuanglang returned to Dali, we went to Shuhe. A relatively quiet ancient town at the foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. It is said that the time flowing over the river is like being hidden in the mountains and forests, as quiet as the surrounding streams. It is said that those streams are left from the snow-capped mountains. ?

Simple and peaceful

There, we saw Many carriages. Maybe close to the "Ancient Tea Horse Road". The novelty is here again. The tall and strong chestnut horse is almost two meters tall. My eyes followed him for a long time, but in the end I still didn't dare to sit down. Mainly we went to play around the stream, wash our hands and look at the fish. Walk around the alleys and look at the dogs. ?

The first time I saw a horse was at the foot of the Alishan Fort in Xiamen. Someone held a white horse while it was grazing. It is said that he is helping people walk their horses. It is really not an easy thing to have such a horse in the city. It seems that the owner of the horse is a foreigner. This leisurely mood is understandable. ?

After the observation in Shuhe, by the time we went to Dali again during the Spring Festival this year, we had already ridden in a carriage two or three times. It’s still a bit too much to ride directly on horseback. If it's like the pony in the Cherry Blossom Valley in Yuantouzhu, Wuxi, you can still ride on it and lead it for two laps. ?

Actually, I would like to see what he looks like when he grows up!

Watching fish is a regular activity in places with water bodies. . When looking at fish in Shuhe River, there are only gray ones. This year I went to the West Lake Scenic Area and saw and fed too many fish at the "Huagang Fish Watching". The densely packed koi are a bit trypophobic. West Lake Sudi is also a good place to ride and enjoy willows. ?

The most beautiful place to feed fish is the courtyard of Changchun Bridge in Yuantouzhu, Tai Lake, where the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. They are full of white and pink flowers, and the wind blows the flowers and falls like rain. The children grabbed a seat in the pavilion and fed the fish. He gave the two loaves of bread he had brought with him to the fish.

When the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, I would enjoy the flowers while he would feed the fish, rabbits, alpacas and ride ponies. The focus is different. I wonder if he will remember the grand scene of flowers blooming all over the mountains and courtyards! The cherry blossoms in Prince Bay in Hangzhou are not as dense as those in Yuantouzhu, so the effect is much inferior. ?

When we went to Hangzhou this year, we stayed in Maojiabu, on Longjing Road, not far from the bustling city, but it was quiet in the bustle and the environment was very good. That day, the children again started counting various bugs on the road, and then played the game of chasing dinosaurs. They walked and ran directly to the Taimiao Station. The bus has four stops. After finally replenishing some energy, he asked to walk back!?

The big trees are shaded and the air is fresh. Occasionally there are tea gardens and botanical gardens. Such sections are suitable for walking and taking deep breaths. It was just his grandmother’s fault. I usually come and go on scooters when I go to school, but there are not many times when I can walk and run like this. Before reaching West Lake, my walking count could reach 18,000 steps. Every time. ?

Playing in the Water

When he went to Jinji Lake in Suzhou, the thing that attracted him was probably the Ferris wheel. Almost every time I go, I sit down. Although you can climb high and see far away, it is foggy most of the time. Also walking back to my residence. ?

I have also been to Slender West Lake, but I just hurried out when there were many people and the flowering period was over. I often go for a scooter ride on Yuanxiang Lake near my home, and I should go see the lotus flowers next time. ?

Lakeside games: fishing, feeding fish, watching ducks, riding, walking, Ferris wheel, feeding red-headed gulls, riding pony to feed rabbits, counting insects and watching spiders, catching dragonflies, rowing a boat ?

Break down the places I have taken my children to in the past two and a half years: Sanya, Dali (2 times), Shuhe, Kunming, Xiamen (2 times), Shenzhen (2 times), Yangzhou, Wuxi, Hangzhou ( 3 times), Taicang, Jiashan, Zhujiajiao, Nanchang, Tanggu, Beijing, Dalian. ?

Nowadays, water is the main focus, because mountain climbing requires some physical strength and endurance. Huangshan, which I most wanted to visit, was also relatively dangerous, so my plans were postponed. Fortunately, I went to Dali during the Spring Festival and climbed Cangshan Mountain. Although we did not reach a place covered with snow, we still climbed up the Seven Fairies Cave. When I was going down the stone stairs, the child even said that he would carry me down. ?

Although he is not sure what he can absorb from his current walking, what he has experienced and experienced will always exist in his vitality. Maybe traveling will become one of his habits in the future, and he can slow down and observe carefully, eliminate some impetuousness, and feel the splendor, majesty and changeability of nature. The aura of beautiful mountains and rivers always has the effect of cleansing the soul. ?

About growth

About children's "natural education"

In the distance, you need more patience and perseverance to go further.

The same goes for growth!
