Ni Hao!

How are you, guys? 

We had a lot of rain during the last week so we have had a lot of cool summer days. The weather is so kind for our people in Ruichang and Wuhan. Not hot:-)

One night, our More Fun Education students had a very good outdoor performance for the Ruichang community. As their teacher, I was so proud to see their growth and progress, as well as cooperated with them for the show on the stage.

The 8 years old twins were preparing the comic dialogue in our dancing room. And the 13 and 11 years old students who are from More Fun Leadership Summer Program were practicing their show in our Children’s Town.

We very much enjoyed our show on the stage.

The photo with Lily & Sansan, the dream spirits of More Fun Education. We designed and made the costume. I named them and my mother wrote the story about them.

Last Monday I returned to Wuhan again, the 4th time in one month to meet a visiting delegation from The University of Queensland, Australia. They were a team running the Positive Parenting Program for 36 years. They had a meeting with Professor Feng and other education experts in Hubei University. 

We shared the outcome of our research and ideas of early childhood education and the importance of parenting. As Professor Feng’s assistant and one of the translator, I gave a talk about Chinese Parenting situation.  

Understanding their Australian accents was a challenge for me.

During the meeting, we received positive feedback and comments about about our research outcome.

Professor Feng and Dr. Sanders were giving the gifts to each other. 

The interesting coincidence was Dr. Sanders, the Director of Triple P, and Professor. Feng, both started their education research and running their program in 1978.

During the two days, I went to nearby places for having fun and continuing my Slow Journey for a while. My hometown is really nice, welcome for you all!

Wishing you all a happy summer!
