3 . Each year on World Book Day, all the students and teachers in my kids’ primary school dress up as book characters and stage a parade (游行) through the Victorian schoolyard, bringing great happiness to the children.
Yet I am rather disheartened by how my fellow parents look at World Book Day. “It’s too competitive!” “Way too much effort!” My fellow parents are missing the point.
World Book Day should be a wonderful celebration of stories and the love of reading. British children are reading less than ever before. Just one in four reads each day, according to a survey done by the National Literacy Trust on World Book Day.
We need World Book Day. We need a day to celebrate the pleasure to be found in reading. But this festival has changed in recent years because we’re just not playing by the rules.
Among the news stories I’ve read recently, parents compete to see who has made the best costumes (化装服) for their kids. We’re overlooking the point of the day: to celebrate books. So, as a step to correcting things, let’s first make sure our children all continue to have access to great books — at school, at libraries and at home.
And then, let’s read them. A few weeks ago, I started a new routine (日常事务) in my house in which we must all read together for half an hour. Ifs not very difficult; we’ve been managing it about once a week. My husband, our eight-year-old and I love it; my six-year-old has more trouble staying focused. But just this morning he crawled into bed with me with a book under his arm and we read for five minutes, silently side-by-side, before the morning rush began.
Sharing books with children is life’s greatest joy. Don’t let that get lost in the overexcitement of fancy dress.

6 . A year ago, we bought our son a bike for his birthday. In this way he could stay more active. Plus, we didn't have to push a tricycle around the neighborhood.
I thought he even wanted to sleep with his bike. He got on, rode, and had a huge smile on his face. When we went out for a walk, he would ask me politely if he could ride his bike. I said yes. Then he would play for a long time and didn't want to go home. He rode in every season: winter, spring, summer and fall.
This year, we had him join in a program called SprocKids started by our local mountain bike club. As you can imagine, my little mountain biker showed great interest in it. On the first night, he tried riding over the obstacles（障碍物）, which made me worried and frightened. One obstacle was even taller than me, but he persisted.
Later, one day, he found an old bike in the storeroom. It was mine. He called me out and said, "Mommy, will you go biking with me?" I was surprised because I hadn't biked since high school, but I decided to cycle with him.
I was highly rewarded for my efforts. On the one hand, I took part in an activity with my child. And I didn't have to do all the work by pushing or carrying him. It was an activity he loved and he told me about every path and every move excitedly. On the other hand, we developed a closer bond（关系）.
In my opinion, it's very important for kids to stay active. And parents' encouragement is very important for them to stay active. But words of encouragement are not enough. It's better if parents can do a physical activity together with their kids.
