"Little Sugar Orange" plans to return home tomorrow, how exciting will this amazing experience in Tohoku be?
The popular 11 "Little Sugar Oranges" are about to complete their trip to the Northeast and plan to fly back to Guangxi on January 10.
On December 31, 2023, 11 "small sugar oranges" were neatly lined up in the queue, pushing suitcases taller than themselves, and appeared in Harbin eye-catchingly. These orange down jackets, blue cotton pants and small yellow hats mark that they have come from Guangxi and officially started a research trip in Northeast China. As a student from a southern city, the discomfort of the northern climate has made many people choose to travel north because there is more freshness and excitement there. However, this journey has just begun, not long after, with the sharp rise of the ice and snow economy in Northeast China this year, "small sugar orange" quickly emerged and became the king of traffic. In this special period, the "small sugar oranges" have chosen to set off. Surprisingly, on the basis of the original plan, we added a new itinerary due to the warm invitation of Jilin.
So, what unusual adventures did the children encounter during this trip to the north?
Withstood a temperature difference of 50°C and neither complained of cold nor tiredness.
In fact, the preparations for this trip began in October 2023 and have been communicated and connected since then until mid-December when it was finalized, and the entire journey will start on December 31. On January 9, Jiang Li, the guide of "Little Sugar Orange" in Heilongjiang, revealed to Chao News reporters that at first, when the teachers of this kindergarten contacted them, they learned that three teachers had come to the Northeast with 11 kindergarten children. Of the 11 children, the youngest is only three years old, while the oldest is no more than six years old. "I wanted the kids to travel, but we didn't know how to arrange it, so we had to plan our own activities first. "On this point, there have been hesitations and ambivalence among travel agencies. But they learned that the kindergarten usually provides training for field trips, and in the winters of 2018 and 2019, they visited Mohe for study. Due to the experience of the teachers in the lead, the travel agency decided to put aside their doubts and serve them wholeheartedly. ”
The popularity of "Little Sugar Orange" exceeded everyone's expectations. Jiang Li mentioned that initially the travel agency invested a lot of human resources to ensure the safety of the children, but then various departments such as cultural tourism, transportation and public security also became involved in the care of the children, which made teachers and tour guides let go of their previous worries.
In Harbin, they visited the Ice and Snow World, the century-old Binzhou Railway Bridge, and the Sophia Cathedral. This allows children from the south to experience the scenery of the north. Jiang Li mentioned that they specially designed a special itinerary for the small sugar oranges. Since the temperature difference between Northeast China and Guangxi is close to 50°C, there is a concern that children may not adapt, so the activity time in each place usually does not exceed three hours. Despite this, they still have a lot of fun in cold weather and never complain about being tired or feeling cold. ”
Then, the little sugar oranges arrived in the northernmost part of China, the Mohe area, and visited the Arctic Village in the Mohe "Little Sugar Orange", and sang the national anthem at the northernmost border post of the motherland; He had a loving tug-of-war with firefighters and also participated in reindeer feeding, riding horses and climbing plows, and winter hunting. At this unforgettable moment, Xiao Sucrose and his comrades shared the happiness brought by this event. After returning to Harbin from Mohe, "Little Sugar Orange" walked into Harbin Institute of Technology for a visit. "Little Sugar Citrus" and "Little Sugar Orange Little Apple" found their favorite books in the school library. Here, the doctoral students of Harbin Institute of Technology provided them with "one-to-one" care, they enjoyed food in the student restaurant, in-depth experience of learning and life, and in the Harbin Institute of Technology Space Museum, they also experienced the aerospace equipment and enjoyed the dance of robots. All this makes them full of hope and hope for the future. I want to see you! On January 7, a passenger named "Little Sugar Orange" took the high-speed train and traveled all the way south, from Harbin to Jilin.
Recently, cultural and tourism departments across the country have issued invitations, hoping that "small sugar oranges" can go on a study tour. "Little sugar orange, you have to stay a little more time and relax! On January 4, the director of the Shenyang Bureau of Culture and Tourism sent an invitation to the "small sugar oranges" passing through Shenyang, hoping that they could take a break; On January 5, the Heilongjiang Department of Culture and Tourism issued a notice, hoping to stay for a few more days; The Xinjiang Department of Culture and Tourism also issued an invitation to the outside world, hoping that "small sugar oranges" can visit Xinjiang.
Many netizens joked that if this "doting" continues, the opportunity for "Little Sugar Orange" to go home will become out of reach.
Came across the most popular service in the Tohoku region.
In this cold journey, "Little Sugar Orange" experienced the most "warm" service. "Little sugar orange, why are you unhappy? I'll give you a small candy box! "They traveled through every city, spoiled endlessly, but in the end they were reluctant to leave: at the moment of separation, they hugged the police uncle and the train conductor's aunt tightly, and tears rolled down.
Jiang Li shared her observation: During this eight-day, seven-night journey, they rarely saw wayward behavior of their age in their own children. Instead, they are more inclined to show independence and resilience, to think about the feelings of others, to care for their friends, and to share each other's joys with them. This group of children is full of positive energy. "According to the teacher who led the group, the 11 children never spoke to their parents alone, the youngest was only three years old, and they did not find their parents to accompany them when they slept," she added. ”
Perhaps, we are not fully aware of the huge potential of children. As a tour guide, Jiang Li has successfully persuaded many parents who want to bring their two-year-old children to the Northeast. But this event completely changed her original intention, she said: "As long as we take good measures to keep warm, the children are fully capable of traveling to the Northeast, and their adaptability is very high." Next, we will design more parent-child travel itineraries for children, so that children in the south can experience the charm of ice and snow earlier. ”
The warm behavior of local residents in Heilongjiang has brought warmth to the entire network through the screen, and Guangxi has also adopted various "creative" ways to give back, such as free tickets to scenic spots, and providing sugar oranges and mandarin oranges as gifts. After transporting 8 truckloads of mandarin oranges and 3 truckloads of sugar oranges from Nanning, Heilongjiang Province to the northeast, Fuyuan, Heilongjiang Province, brought 100,000 boxes of cranberries to the enthusiastic friends of Nanning and decided to distribute them to the citizens of Nanning free of charge.
On January 9th, 11 "small sugar oranges" completed their study tour in Jilin and plan to fly back to Nanning tomorrow. Although "Small Sugar Orange" is just an ordinary research activity, it has stimulated the close connection between the North and the South, become a bridge between the north and the south for culture and tourism, and stimulate the warm interaction between the north and the south. We are all looking forward to the birth of more "Little Fungus Master", "Little Panda" and "Little Yumi".
