香港經濟日報︰隔代舐犢情深 面對無常才會珍惜
大家還記得,我們的祖父母從前是甚麽模樣的嗎?當我們還在牙牙學語、走路跌跌碰碰、腦袋只是一張白紙時,除了父母之外,誰是我們最親密、最信任的人?
祖父母們陪伴着我們成長,也許沒有父母般嚴格;他們令我們覺得被需要,見面時總是張開兩臂將我們一擁入懷!對於零用錢也許他們會疏爽得多!雖然他們有時很愛囉嗦!
香港經濟日報︰善用繪本 邊讀邊玩 奠定孩子英語學習興趣
許多家長都了解親子共讀繪本的重要性,而善用英語繪本,能幫助孩子往後的英語學習更得心應手。資深蒙特梭利老師李坤珊博士在其著作《讓孩子安心做自己》中指出,共讀英語繪本能為孩子提供一定程度的全面性、探索性和實用性學習環境,從而奠定英語學習的基礎和興趣。
香港經濟日報︰融義旅情發揚義工精神 為南丫島建立互助社區
由CIIF社區投資共享基金資助,為期3年的「從SUN出發融義旅情」,旨在於南丫島發展社區互助網絡、建立聚腳點,並與社福商跨界別合作,舉辦身心靈及多樣活動,讓島民互相認識和連繫鄰里關係,服務遍布島上17條村落,首期計劃經已圓滿完成。
不少人也許覺得南丫島「甚麼都無」,無超級市場、無安老院、無市政大樓等市區常見的基建設施,島上卻擁有得天獨厚的豐富自然生態,綠樹成蔭、海天一色;鄰里情誼濃厚,街頭巷里間都能看到街坊三五成群地在談笑風生;更是華洋匯萃、臥虎藏龍之地。正因如此,計劃串連及發展南丫島原有的優勢,並加以發掘潛在資源,營建互信互惠文化及人情味社區。
大公文匯︰我的家在香港|南丫島印籍義工熱心為長者理髮 回饋無界鄰里情
海天一色的美景,恬靜純樸的漁鄉風情,地處香港島西南面的南丫島,是一座遠離城市喧囂的漁村小島。不同於香港其他社區,這裏聚居着許多不同國籍的居民,雖然語言各異,但街坊鄰里間總是有說有笑,擁有着無界的互助精神。外籍女士Eudiya長居島上工作多年,閒暇時間參與社區義工無私奉獻,為有需要的島民排憂解難。最近,她化身成義剪理髮師,上門幫助行動不便的長者剪髮。而Eudiya想要服務社區的心,正是源自對島上鄰里情的回饋。

明報︰情緒管理:學憤怒管理 培養同理心 讀繪本改善情緒 不做小霸王
也許繪本在一些人眼中的詮釋,就是「給小朋友消閒看的圖畫書」,但其實繪本種類繁多,內容亦十分廣泛,透過閱讀合適的故事,甚至可以幫助孩子解決社交、心理、親子關係等問題。由安徒生會推出的「 悅讀新視野」計劃,便是透過到校主理繪本工作坊,讓學生從中學習管理情緒及表達自己等竅門,藉此提高社交技巧。
黃巴士︰安徒生會推薦十本環保主題繪本 親子齊齊愛閱讀愛地球
環保是全球關注的焦點議題,保護環境和資源除了是政府和企業的責任,更是每個人需要關心的問題。作為家長,我們可以通過閱讀,向孩子灌輸這些重要的環保觀念。安徒生會南丫島主任孔嘉鴻特別為《黃巴士》讀者們挑選了十本環保主題繪本,適合家長與孩子共讀,一同瞭解愛護地球的重要性。
香港經濟日報︰以書作伴 跌碰中前行
遇上失敗或挫折後,有人落荒而逃,有人迎難而上,也有人給自己喘息空間,休息夠了再重新上路。孩子的成長路上總會跌跌碰碰。既然不能控制所有結局盡是美滿,惟有擁抱未知。每一次經歷不論成敗,都建構成今天的自己,值得驕傲。
