In this era of rapid digital development, our children seem to have become accustomed to learning and entertainment in front of the screen. Classroom education and online information have become the main ones in the formation of their worldview. However, such a worldview often lacks a macro perspective, and it is difficult for children to intuitively appreciate the vastness of the earth, the vastness of the universe, and the greatness of human civilization. As parents, it is necessary to help children expand their horizons, understand and feel the vastness and greatness of the world.
We need to get the kidsGet outside and get close to nature。The natural world is the best textbook, not only because it provides a wealth of knowledge, but also because it allows children to learn to observe and think through hands-on experience. By organizing outdoor adventure activities, such as camping, hiking, stargazing, etc., children can have direct contact with nature, understand the differences in ecological diversity and geographical environment, and cultivate their spatial perception and awareness of environmental protection.

This way of learning helps them to build a larger framework of worldview in time and space.
Advances in technology have also provided children with new perspectives on the world. Through virtual reality technology, we can let children experience deep-sea exploration, space travel and other activities, although these experiences are virtual, but they can greatly stimulate children's imagination and curiosity, so that they canCurious and in awe of the unknown
We also needEmphasis is placed on the cultivation of an international perspective。In the context of globalization, it is essential for children to understand the concept of a global village and to understand different countries and regions of the world. By participating in international exchange programs, learning foreign languages, and international news, children can gradually build a sense of global citizenship.
The integration of arts education is also indispensable。Works of art can often transcend the boundaries of time and space, reflecting the development of human society and the expression of individual emotions. Through art appreciation, creation and performance, children learn to understand and feel the world from multiple perspectives, which is extremely beneficial for their emotional development and creativity.
In order to help children broaden their horizons, we need to integrate nature experience, historical exploration, scientific and technological innovation, international exchange and art education into our education programs.
