I was born in this historically and culturally rich hometown of Lung Yeuk Tau, but I grew up abroad. Every time I return here, it feels like stepping into a world where time has reversed. Every brick and tile here tells a story of the past. The old walled village, situated on the mountainside, stands with its majestic blue brick walls, seemingly narrating tales of repelling pirates. The steps in front of the village gate are cleverly designed as a defensive position, making it difficult for enemies to attack. The small holes and high platforms on the walls were used to monitor outside movements, ensuring the villagers' safety. Such intelligent architectural designs leave me in awe of my ancestors' wisdom. Passing through the ancient gate, I see orderly houses with winding paths paved with blue stones. Not far away, the grand ancestral hall—Song Ling Tang Gong Hall—showcases our family's long history. The exquisite wood carvings and murals inside the hall reflect our family’s glory and traditions. Beside the ancestral hall stands the Tin Hau Temple, with its red walls and yellow tiles radiating a sacred atmosphere. The ancient bronze bell inside tells of countless pious wishes, as if feeling the divine protection. The surrounding statues of the Earth God and the Goddess of Heaven further immerse me in the rich local beliefs. When I step into other walled villages like Dong Ge and Wing Ning, I can still sense the vigor of their long history. Although many walls are now damaged, I can still imagine the tense scenes of repelling pirates. The altars and other structures make me feel the sincere hopes of my ancestors for wealth and success. As I stroll through this culturally rich land, I can almost feel the footsteps of my ancestors and the vitality of this home. No matter where I go, my roots will always be here—in Lung Yeuk Tau.

Celebrating Our Special Bodies Our bodies are special—they can move and play, Waving hello, giving hugs, and smiling all day. Your arms can stretch wide to share love and cheer, Your hands can clap, tap, and give a high five, my dear! Expressing Through Movement Look at your fingers: wiggle them slow, one, two, three— Count them out loud and set your kind spirit free. Jump, twirl, or tiptoe, let your body sing, Every move you make can make your heart ring. Emphasizing Gentle Movements But listen very close—there’s something you must know: Our bodies are for gentle moves, not for causing woe. Hitting, slapping, or pushing can hurt a friend’s heart, It makes their body hurt and tears their happy world apart. Hands Are Not For Hitting Imagine if someone hit you—ouch, that would sting! So let’s promise together, in a gentle, steady ring: “Hands, arms, and feet are for love and fun, Not for hurting others—no, not one!” Recognizing Big Feelings Sometimes you feel angry, sad, or even a bit scared, Maybe someone takes your toy, and you feel unprepared. When big feelings start to rise, here’s what you can do: Take a deep breath—in… and out… let it flow right through. Self-Soothing Strategies Clap your hands gently, tap your feet with care, Or squeeze a soft pillow—let your worries clear. Press your hands together like you’re giving yourself a hug, Count slowly with your fingers—feel calm, safe, and snug. Positive Ways to Use Your Hands Your hands are perfect for waving a bright hello, For drawing pretty pictures or making a paper bow. They’re great for a high five when a friend does something neat, Or giving a gentle pat to show that love is sweet. Kind Alternatives for Upset Moments When you’re feeling upset, try these kind things instead: Open your arms for a warm hug or tap out a beat with your head. If your anger grows, count your fingers—one by one, Then take another deep breath until your storm is done.
