Previously, I couldn't resist scrolling through my phone as soon as I got home. Now, the 'phone free parent-child time' every night has become the warmest moment in our family. Recently, at a parent sharing session at Yingzhou Road Kindergarten in Fuyang City, Anhui Province, the speech of Wang Li, a parent of Class 1 children, resonated with the parents present. Nowadays, such a transformation is happening in kindergartens in Yingzhou District, Fuyang City. A home school co education campaign with the theme of "Putting Down Your Phone, Warm Companionship" transformed "fingertip time" into "parent-child warmth", laying a solid foundation of family warmth for children's growth. With the popularity of smartphones, "parents bowing their heads to swipe their phones while children play with toys alone" has become a common scene in many families. In a survey conducted in Yingzhou District, it was found that the lack of parent-child interaction caused by excessive use of mobile phones has become a prominent problem affecting the mental health of young children and family parent-child relationships. Therefore, starting from the spring semester of 2024, the Education Bureau of Yingzhou District will launch a home school collaborative action with kindergartens as the battlefield, guiding parents to use mobile phones scientifically and reconstruct high-quality parent-child interaction models. Parents, please put down your phones now, look at the children around you, and listen carefully to what they want to say... "At the Yingzhou Road Kindergarten, which took the lead in implementing the policy, the theme activity of" Parent Child Heart Dialogue "was held. As soon as Principal Liu Xiaohong finished speaking, parents who were originally looking down at their phones turned their gaze to their children. When hearing children's straightforward expressions such as "Mom, I want you to accompany me to build blocks" and "Dad, it's been a long time since you told me a bedtime story", many families have red eyes. This is a microcosm of the implementation of parent-child education in kindergartens in Yingzhou District. To awaken parents' awareness of parent-child companionship, various kindergartens in the district have designed a series of activities based on actual situations. Yingzhou Road Kindergarten has launched the "One Week No Mobile Phone Challenge", which encourages parents to spend one hour every day interacting with their children through reading picture books and handmade crafts by distributing parent-child task cards; Lianchi Kindergarten held a debate competition on "Mobile Phones and Growth" to help parents clarify the dangers of excessive use of mobile phones through ideological collision; Huaihe Road Kindergarten invites psychological experts to give lectures on the impact of mobile phone dependence on the establishment of children's sense of security. Under the promotion of kindergarten, parents have gradually mastered high-quality companionship methods such as reading together, doing handicrafts, and outdoor sports. Daily "phone free parent-child time" has become an important part of family life. I used to think that being by my child's side was companionship, but it wasn't until I participated in kindergarten activities that I realized that absent-minded companionship is more harmful to my child than not being there, "sighed Zhang Qiang, a parent who completed the" One Week No Phone Challenge. Nowadays, in Yingzhou District, children are gradually discovering that the companionship of their parents is more interesting than mobile phones, and parents have also realized that the key to companionship lies in high-quality interaction. The phenomenon of parental dependence on mobile phones has significantly improved, with most parents reporting a significant increase in parent-child interaction time and a significant decrease in the incidence of emotional problems such as anxiety and irritability in young children.
