The Last Day of Vacation
During the vacation, I took my child out to exercise every day.
The joy of dopamine feels even better than playing games.
At least the child who is playing games is quick to turn off the game and change clothes to get ready to go.
The child's mom didn't go to play basketball this time; she said she would play table tennis instead.
We all set off.
Before, when the tire didn't have a small puncture, the whole family rode the electric scooter to set off.
The whole family actually doesn't weigh much; I calculated it's about 195kg.
Now, I let the child's mom ride a shared bike.
This time, she rode an electric bike for 2.5 yuan.
The child's mom asked me to reimburse her.
It hurts!
On the way back, the whole family continued to ride the electric scooter together.
Playing table tennis,
the eldest child is a beginner,
the second child doesn't know how to play.
There are eight free table tennis tables,
one gateball court,
one small soccer field, one standard soccer field,
four standard basketball courts,
two tennis courts,
and two or one volleyball court.
There are also some slides, swings, and fitness equipment.
This community sports center is quite nice; at least everything is free.
I practiced with the eldest child using a ping pong ball to build confidence.
The second child started explaining the rules to him
because he didn't know anything at all.
After hitting a few, he ran away.
Later, the child's mom asked me to teach him step by step.
I told the second child to relax and grip the paddle tightly without controlling it.
I would control it.
In this situation, he managed to win and instantly gained confidence.
He hit a few balls and started to look a bit like he knew what he was doing,
but he didn't score any points.
After hitting a few more balls, he ran away again.
When I was practicing with the child's mom,
the second child took a small unopened bag of toys,
saying that a kid gave it to him after he threw a ring.
I told him to return it to that kid.
He went and came back with another small bag,
saying he threw another ring.
Too many gifts for him.
Awkward.
I asked, "Did you say thank you?"
He said he did.
