想像力是一種玩法
逛商場的時候,小豬B在一隱密處發現了一架電動船。
商場內的電動遊戲,只要放入錢幣就會動這個事實,小豬B是知道的。但他同樣知道,我家不會花費在這種玩意上。只是看著另一個小朋友將錢幣放進電動船,難免有點心動。
於是我跟他站在一旁,說:「仔呀,讓我們一同數一數,這電動船會動多久,好嗎?」
「1,2,3,4...」小豬B還數不到20,電動船就停下了。那小朋友的媽媽一邊嚷著「怎麼這樣快就完!」一邊拍打電動船,但就是沒有奇蹟出現。
我問小豬B:「就這樣花了一塊錢,你覺得值得嗎?」
小豬B搖搖頭說:「不值...」
「不過我有一個更好的玩法!」說著我把他放上電動船,然後敲了他的頭一下,說:「用 imagination 想像力。你最近不是很喜歡看 Wonder Pets 嗎?」
「我係 Ming-Ming!」
「好,你做 Ming-Ming,我們要坐 flying sailboat 去救小動物囉! Wonder pets, wonder pets, we're on our way... and save the day...」
就這樣,兩父子在商場一角,又唱又笑的玩了20分鐘。過程總共救了大whale、藍色魚魚、袋鼠BB、鴨鴨媽媽等5隻動物和一個「A」字。

If I know to answer 不值, my parents would be so much happier. If I listen and follow my say 我係 Ming-Ming, then perhaps I don't need to learn the same thing the hard way.....I still use $2 for a bottle of coke in vending machine!!
Why didn't I listen? LISTEN?

Jasmin Houng,
導引孩子的想像力發展,對孩子的將來也有好處。

Time did fly so fast!
Hope that we will visit your big family again! Please send my greeting to all of you! We are doing good at HK.
YingYing plays the similar games with me and grandparents daily.

If I say imaginary play can only go so far in a child's development, because with gradual exposure to culture, technology, materials, etc., 想像已不能滿足對實物的追求。What do you think?
Narumi,
We miss you too! Will keep you all in prayer :)
Joanna,
So... is that your thesis topic?? You shouldn't ask other people to do homework for you la!! ;]
mmm... what about this, instead of seeing imagination as a mean of physical satisfaction, it is a valuable asset of a human person. Developing it with the right set of values will lead to other treasurable qualities, such as creativity, associative mind, problem solution skills, active learning attitudes.
This is what I think :)

教導孩子有時真的很需要創意, 我在你身上學習到了.
我和peter看完了你的教兒方法之後, 他立時跟我說: " 唔.... 下次老婆又想shopping買衫的時候, 我就會同你講:呢件衫著一季就唔興,你覺得值得買嗎? 用用你的想像力, 想像自己著住件衫, 企係山頂上大叫 I believe I can fly, I am the king of the world!!!..." 相信到時候什麼興致都給掃光, 什麼也不用買了.
看來我們都傻了.
不過真的, 很配服你的創意及耐性呢.
