The attending officials and representatives of parent-child families on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to pull the ribbon that symbolizes the future and hope, and officially launch the third Cross-Strait Circus Parent-Child Festival.
This year's cultural festival is themed "Parent-children to Jimei is different". It has set up activities such as the opening ceremony of the Cross-Strait Circus Parent-Child Culture Festival, Cross-Strait Parent-Child Study Camp, Cross-Strait Cultural Benefit Parent-Child Month, etc., showing the characteristics of "wider recruitment scope", "richer content", and "combination of online and offline". The organizer of
said that these activities are not only another practical innovation in Xiamen Jimei District's cross-strait interaction, emotional identity, cultural and tourism integration, and its exploration of how the cultural and tourism industry breaks through and recovers in the post-epidemic era.
It is understood that the first Cross-Strait Circus Parent-Child Culture Festival recruits 100 pairs of parent-child families on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to eat, live, play, and create together, building an interactive platform for cross-strait parent-child exchange and sharing; the second Cultural Festival creates a new model of integration of research and study industry that combines "study research + parent-child" and "online + offline".
This year, although still troubled by factors such as the new crown epidemic, Jimei's cross-strait exchanges, especially the cross-strait parent-child interactions, have not stopped, and has innovated and upgraded this cross-strait parent-child study camp from the dimensions of connotation, form, time, space, etc. Specifically reflected in:
First of all, the activity connotation is richer. On the basis of paying more attention to children's learning and travel in the past, we integrated Taiwan's study tour and parent-child education concepts, changed sightseeing study to immersive experience, focusing on the comprehensive needs of parents and children from four aspects: natural ecology, humanities and arts, outdoor sports, and labor practice.
Secondly, the forms are more diverse. Focus on the construction of parent-child time, and select scenic spots that conform to the connotation of "five education" and have the attributes of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait from Jimei's many cultural and tourism sectors. Using Lingling International Circus City as the main base of parent-child camp, it connects cultural and tourism resources such as Garden Expo Garden, Chengyi Technology Exploration Center , Laoyuan, Xingchaoyue Center, Arles Photography Exhibition, Jimei Tower, Jimei Aesthetic Village into 4 high-quality parent-child study routes, allowing parents and children on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to experience the beauty of Jimei in more choices and enhance parent-child relationships.
third, the time span is larger. From a three-day and two-night parent-child camp in the previous year to a one-month period (December 4 to December 26), each with a cross-strait parent-child study camp with different themes and 2 days and one night. Each study camp will recruit 20 groups of parent-child families. Let parents-child families on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have more choices and attract more parents-child families to participate.
After a new upgrade, the Cross-Strait Parent-Child Carnival has received a warm response from families on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and the number of participants has been almost "shortly". The first "Nature Exploration Camp" included 10 pairs of parents and children from Taipei, Tainan, Taoyuan, and , New Taipei, in Taiwan.
Li Jingyi from Tainan, Taiwan has been in Xiamen for five or six years. Her husband works in semiconductors in Xiamen. This time, she and her husband came to participate in the cross-strait parent-child study camp with their 9-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter.
Li Jingyi told reporters that this time, he signed up to participate in the cross-strait parent-child activities and selected the Ecological Jimei Nature Exploration Camp. There are interesting activities such as watching animals at night and catching the sea, which can give children a different experience; at the same time, mainland parent-child families participate in the activities, hoping to meet children who can get along and let the children communicate in a different environment than usual."I'm looking forward to this upcoming interaction and experience."
, also from Tainan, Taiwan, also came to participate in the event. She told reporters that his husband worked in Xiamen and his family has lived here for almost five years. I have heard from my friends that the cross-strait parent-child study activities are very good and I have always wanted to experience them. "The two sons like nature and animals, so the whole family signed up to participate in the ecological Jimei Nature Exploration Camp with animals and mangroves ."
"If you have the fate, we are willing to make more mainland friends through this cross-strait parent-child activity and better integrate into local life." She said. (End)
