Protect and support children practicing
Doctor Le Quang My (Children’s Hospital 2, Ho Chi Minh City) said that children in the center of Ho Chi Minh City have little opportunity to experience because they spend a lot of time studying. Therefore, there is a need to enhance the content of team activities to give children and team members an opportunity to experience more. The American doctor said, “It is the experiences and difficulties of my time at home that have helped me to move forward so that when I face difficulties, I do not falter. Children nowadays are less likely to experience challenges in life Is.”
There are so many concerns when there are so many harms like electronic cigarettes, synthetic drugs, smiley balls to attract children today, find ways to approach them… Professionally and in the role of a parent, Dr. Dinh Thi Hai Yen – Head Health Education and Communication Department (Ho Chi Minh City Center for Disease Control) – Concerned about a friend using e-cigarettes who is addicted and suffering from some neurological diseases. The team calls for more healthy playgrounds to help avoid harm to young children.
Child protection has also been given a lot of attention. Rai says it’s not just about preventing misbehavior or violence at school, but parents and experts say children need to be safe online. “The team should form a link between school and family, support our children to participate in activities, team movement to develop mind-brain-body, children to be inspired by beauty and offended by bad Bad”, suggested parent Tran Van Tri, who has two children as team members.
In particular, the idea of the club and the series of activities of the team council “with the children” in the coming period are supported. It can be seen as a means for parents to exchange parenting skills and equip themselves to better parent their children.

the team needs to innovate
In the consultation sessions, there were requirements on how to design the activities for the children, how to make them engaging, innovative and practical. Ms. Vo Tran Thanh Phuong, general manager of Minh Dao Primary School (District 5), said that children use the internet a lot and play music that many children do not know but young people are very familiar with songs.
Ms. Phuong said that literary and musical works are a source of material to educate children about morality, quality and love for their motherland. However, these functions are currently in short supply. “I am concerned about this myself, wondering how to choose the way to educate children in the current era,” Ms. Phuong asked.
Literary creation camps for children, implementing more technology in organizing activities are issues proposed by many conferences. Theoretical material can be arranged online. However, don’t get caught up in the technology and forget that the basic need in activities for children is to create an experiential environment, enhance interaction to help them learn and practice skills and mature.
In addition, the new educational program is presenting many challenges for team general managers. There is almost no room left in the curriculum for more lessons, mandatory content such as 32 prescribed periods, STEM content, life skills, arts…, team activities and child stars.
Ms. Pham Thi Thanh Phung – chair of the Children’s Club in Ward 14 (District 11) – suggested that it is necessary to create continuity from middle school to high school and foster the ability of good team leaders and youth. “There are people who used to be good team commanders, but when they reached Level III, they were not promoted, not introduced, and no one helped them to stay in union activities. It’s useless because you already have a base, ready “fire” – expressed Ms. Fung.
Along the same lines, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thao Trang, general manager of the Nguyen Du Secondary School Team (Go Vap District), also suggested that the City Team Council have a method to promote good team commanders from Grade II to Grade III. “Let’s create a greater playground for good team leaders, not only for those who win high awards but should be expanded because it is a very useful playground about which participants in team activities Many people are very excited” – said Trang.
The “marketing” of the team is limited!
Parent Thuy Wei, whose daughter is in sixth grade, shared candidly that she had many concerns when her child reached the age of care. They hope that team activities help equip children with more life skills, distinguish right from wrong, and steer clear of evil.
Frankly, Ms. Wei said that the “marketing” team for parents in the school is still limited. Ms Vai said, “If parents are kept up to date with information about school team activities, school child activities and online groups in the classroom, I believe they will encourage their children to participate.” Will support.”
