Cooking, kneading dough for pancakes, hand knitting, raising chickens and ducks... A group of kindergarten children have become adept at these tasks, with their skilled and efficient movements making many adults feel slightly ashamed. 

Recently, a video of the kindergarten's labor life class at Xuhai Road Kindergarten in Xuzhou, East China's Jiangsu Province, has garnered praise from netizens, with many suggesting it should be promoted nationwide.

The kindergarten, which incorporates a "human touch," has gained the support of parents. Many parents have sent materials such as kindling, and some parents from Harbin, Inner Mongolia, and other places have traveled long distances to enroll their children. The kindergarten's enrollment is full until 2026, according to media reports.

Watching the children in the video fully engaged, it is evident that they genuinely love these hands-on tasks. At an age where they are developing interests and hobbies, the children are trying out various forms of manual labor with great enthusiasm. The classes are moved out of the classroom and into the kitchen and fields, combining education with entertainment. The children not only acquire proficient labor skills but also a spirit of loving life, which will benefit them for a lifetime.
