孩子的成長旅程，就像一場充滿驚喜的尋寶遊戲。   旅途上，語言是孩子認識世界的重要工具，社交情緒則是建立人際關係和心理健康的基石。他們在地墊上翻滾、爬行，展開屬於自己的「大冒險」，從中發掘身體的無限可能；又會從身邊蒐集各種「法寶」，利用隨手可得的物料和素材，發揮創意與想像，建構心目中的理想世界。   至於每次「冒險」後的「補給時間」同樣重要。在每日的餐桌上，小朋友透過均衡飲食，慢慢累積成長所需的營養與能量，為未來的每一步奠定基礎。   今期，我們誠邀家長一同踏上這場尋寶之旅，從語言發展、社交情緒、自由遊戲、體能活動到健康飲食，細味子女成長中的每一個珍貴時刻。   按此閱讀《童心．家Fun》Vol.10 瀏覽《童心．家Fun》其他期數     關於《童心．家Fun》 於2023年5月份創刊，以向家長及公眾分享本會累積多年的專業育兒知識為宗旨。雜誌每期主要收錄數篇幼兒照顧、幼兒教育、家庭服務等界別之專業人士的撰文，對於公眾的育兒知識有所增益。每期雜誌於各地點免費向公眾派發，派發地點包括本會屬下單位、私人診所、健康中心、各大母嬰健康院等。雜誌亦可從各大院校圖書館或公共圖書館借閱。

We are deeply honored to have received the generous sponsorship of Sino Group, which arranged an exclusive movie screening on 24 July for children from our two Children and Family Services Centres. During the movie screening event, children enjoyed Doraemon: Nobita and the New Castle of the Undersea Devil. In this hot summer, children enjoyed a fascinating “deep-sea exploration journey,” discovering the wonders of the ocean. Laughter and excitement filled the cinema. Children not only learned about marine life and the ocean, but also followed Nobita, Doraemon and their friends on a thrilling adventure. Children were fully engaged and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.   We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Sino Group for supporting this special movie screening and providing a comfortable theatre for the children. This brought them much joy and created wonderful memories for their summer holiday.

He reaffirmed that child safeguarding has remained at the core of the HKSPC’s mission over the past century.   Lee said, “The conference theme closely aligns with the Hong Kong Government’s latest AI policy direction, which positions AI as a key future industry and promotes ‘AI+’ integration across sectors. Caregivers play a vital role in guiding children to use technology to broaden their horizons. At the same time, we advocate for the thoughtful and balanced use of technology in parenting, with the aim of fostering closer, healthier parent–child relationships.”   The event provided valuable networking opportunities, facilitating professional exchange and meaningful cross-sector collaboration among participants. HKSPC will continue to promote cross-sector collaboration to enhance early childhood wellbeing and create a joyful, safe and supportive environment for children in Hong Kong.

「因材施教」這條金科玉律，從來不只是學校裏的教育原則，而是日常育兒中反覆出現的課題。有些孩子天生外向、勇於嘗試；有些孩子心思細膩、敏感內斂，需要大人放慢腳步，配合他們的節奏同行。   今期我們邀請大家跳出傳統學習的框架，重新發掘生活中俯拾皆是的學習時刻：有孩子透過嘗試新食物建立勇氣、有孩子在遊戲中探索感覺世界、也有孩子在遊樂場中學習與他人相處。同時，我們亦會看見科技如何走近精神健康服務，成為連結與陪伴的工具。   當大人願意轉換視角，讓學習走出課室，以多元方式與孩子同行，世界便會因每個孩子的不同，成為立體而有溫度的教材。   按此閱讀《童心．家Fun》Vol.9 瀏覽《童心．家Fun》其他期數     關於《童心．家Fun》 於2023年5月份創刊，以向家長及公眾分享本會累積多年的專業育兒知識為宗旨。雜誌每期主要收錄數篇幼兒照顧、幼兒教育、家庭服務等界別之專業人士的撰文，對於公眾的育兒知識有所增益。每期雜誌於各地點免費向公眾派發，派發地點包括本會屬下單位、私人診所、健康中心、各大母嬰健康院等。雜誌亦可從各大院校圖書館或公共圖書館借閱。
