recently, dr. du xiaona, attending physician of the department of traditional chinese medicine of qingdao no. 8 people's hospital, was invited to visit jinshui road kindergarten and gave a "special class" to the children in the senior class - "introduction to traditional chinese medicine culture".

in the class, du xiaona started with a few simple questions, guiding the children to learn about tcm, understand tcm's health-preserving concepts and treatment methods, and get to know the common chinese medicines in life. they learned how mugwort is transformed step by step, from fresh mugwort to processed mugwort leaves, processed moxa wool and moxa sticks, and finally to the operation of moxibustion.

after class, the teachers took the children to participate in the "i am a little chinese medicine practitioner for a day" experience activity. the children learned about more than a dozen chinese medicines that are both medicinal and edible by observing, touching, smelling, and tasting. they also carefully learned how to take a pulse. the children raised their hands excitedly: "teacher, i feel my pulse!" in addition, the teachers took the children to visit the acupuncture bronze man and the "ear" that contains all kinds of "acupoints", and experienced chinese medicine special projects such as ear acupoint pressing. after class, the children who listened carefully to the class also asked some small questions: "teacher, what is acupuncture for?" some children proudly introduced their chinese medicine experience in life: "teacher, my grandmother has done cupping." "teacher, i did moxibustion when i had a stomachache last time." looking at the children's bright eyes and watching their interest in chinese medicine springing up like mushrooms after rain, i deeply felt the sense of mission and national pride as a chinese medicine practitioner to spread chinese medicine culture.

"traditional chinese medicine contains the chinese nation's health and wellness concepts and practical experience for thousands of years. it is a treasure of chinese civilization and embodies the broad wisdom of the chinese people and the chinese nation." general secretary xi jinping attaches great importance to traditional chinese medicine and pays attention to the inheritance and development of traditional chinese medicine culture. carrying out the activities of bringing traditional chinese medicine culture into campus is an active response and implementation of the "four deliveries, four advances, and four improvements" policy for health and wellness work. cultivating traditional chinese medicine literacy and national self-confidence, and making traditional chinese medicine part of daily life, needs to start from the children, sow the seeds of traditional chinese medicine culture, let it sprout in the hearts of children, and constantly inject fresh blood into the inheritance and development of traditional chinese medicine culture.
