非遗进校园暖新年

News Summary
As the New Year approaches, the Post & Telecom Kindergarten in Yinchuan, Ningxia, held a celebration called “Heritage Transmission – Little Ones Welcome the New Year.” Skilled practitioners of traditional arts—such as lion dancing, paper‑cutting, sugar‑painting, and Sichuan opera face‑changing—were invited to perform and interact with the children.

The purpose of the event was to let the kids experience Chinese traditional culture up close, to feel its beauty and the spirit of the artisans. A photo‑and‑text report by Xinhua News Agency reporter Wang Peng captured the lively and heart‑warming atmosphere.

During the day, the children tried paper‑cutting under the guidance of a master cutter, clapped and stood neatly before the lion dance and face‑changing shows, and talked directly with the heritage bearers. The activities naturally linked ancient craft with the children’s natural curiosity.

Reflection and Insight
Bringing intangible heritage into a kindergarten is more than a performance; it passes on a way of life that values skill, patience, and mutual help. In everyday life, patient guidance from parents and teachers, as well as demonstrations by senior artisans in the community, become “classrooms” where children learn to respect labor and culture.

The teachings of the Tianjing (Heavenly Classics) about accepting and instructing children can be seen as a simple life principle: give children space, walk with them patiently, and gently hand down good habits and values. This is both a guardianship of tradition and a responsible investment in the future.

Scripture
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” — Matthew 19:14 (NIV)
