Zhonghe Parent-Child Center's Themed Activities, From Underwater Worlds to Lasy Blocks, Win Parental Favor

The Zhonghe Liancheng Public Childcare and Parent-Child Center, located within Zhonghe Elementary School, is a beloved community hub. It not only cares for 45 infants and toddlers but also features a vibrant parent-child center on its third floor. This center boasts a free exploration area, which is redecorated with new themes and toys every three months, and a themed activity area led by professional instructors.

These specialized classes offer a range of engaging activities for parents and children. Recent themes have included sensory movement, creative clay modeling, an "insect world" experience, and Lasy building blocks. The underwater-themed exploration area, complete with octopus and jellyfish decorations, whale and shark plush toys, and marine life picture books, has been a particular hit. Children even participated in a "Baby Shark" dance and hide-and-seek game.

Instructors like Chen Meiling, head of Yixiang Planet Creative Company, lead the clay modeling sessions, where parents and children collaborate on creations like colorful donuts. Kitty Chen leads Lasy block activities, inspired by picture books of animals at the zoo, guiding pairs to build structures like a "garden tour" vehicle. These Lasy blocks are designed for ages 1 to 6, promoting fine motor skills and spatial reasoning.

Liu Yusong, director of the Zhonghe Liancheng Public Childcare Center, highlighted the meticulous planning and professional instruction behind these popular courses. "Each class is almost instantly sold out," he noted, recalling a previous "secret life of insects" class where children could touch and experience creatures like rhinoceros beetles and geckos. The center's success stems from its commitment to providing high-quality, engaging, and well-executed programs for local families.
