There are so many questions playing their minds as what their children are learning through watching TV shows, movies, talk shows, soap opera, cartoons, and even news updates. Usually, they would take time to also watch the show to make sure that kids are getting educational learning from it. Is there any TV show that makes interesting yet educational image to children?
There are many Chinese cartoons parents can recommend to their children. One of them is the famous Lao Mountain Taoist that portrays the ancient Chinese folklore stories. It is a story of a man named Wang Qi who one time went to Lao mountain to see if there are immortals exists in the place. He saw a man who was already old yet looks young physically. He becomes the Taoist pupil for three months. On the first month, he listens and follows his teacher’s commands like of going to hills for woods every day. On the second month, he feels the pain is pulling him down and cannot anymore endure his painful life in the mountain. Still, he waited for his teacher to teach him the magical skills. The third month came and the pain he suffers has come to end. The Taoist saw the patience and hard work of Wang Qi so he decided to teach him the incantation to memorize and narrate it for walking through the wall.
This Lao Mountain Taoist teaches us to be patient, and be hard working to achieve our goals. Everything in life must be earned through self determination and faith in God. Thus, children need to be a good listener and follow teacher’s instructions in order to be good in school. This is a good story which children can relate to. The good deeds of Wang Qui are their driving force to achieve their goals in school.
There are lots of best examples of cartoons with educational advantage. Parents can ask a friend or neighbors of what cartoons are appropriate to their children’s learning needs. It would be very hard for parents to ensure that a certain cartoons fit their educational standards. Only educational cartoons make them inspired to go to school and be kind just like their favorite Chinese cartoons.
