Field Experience Communicating with Nature, Awakening the Value of the Forest

Students of Yurim Elementary School in Hamyang-gun are experiencing a children's forest program at Daebongsan Healing Valley.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Daebongsan Healing Valley in Hamyang-gun, Gyeongnam announced on the 28th that it operated a children's forest experience program for all 21 students of Yurim Elementary School.

The forest experience, held in the pine forest of the forest bathing area within Daebongsan Healing Valley, involved telling stories related to trees and the phoenix of Daebongsan, and giving students time to whisper their secret stories, which they could not share with others, to the trees and communicate with them.

Additionally, the children cooperated to experience the visually impaired simulation under the theme of 'Caterpillar Walking,' built stone towers using stones around the forest, played rock-paper-scissors games on logs, and hung from trees. Through these forest activities, which are not easily accessible in daily life, the children had a chance to breathe with nature and learn the importance of the forest.

Furthermore, they made leaf boats using bamboo leaves and created egg bundles using straw to glimpse the wisdom of their ancestors.

Students who participated in the children's forest experience said, "This outdoor forest experience was a great opportunity to learn about tree stories and the hidden secrets of the forest that we usually did not know," and "The crafts we made, which we usually do not get to try at school, were difficult but very fun."
