"We let the children play with percussion first and then give them a theme and ask them to create art," she explains. "The courses are taught through games and stories, so the children enjoy the classes a lot."

Wang has noticed that, while some parents are still looking for something that has a reward or certificate for their kids at the end, some younger parents have a different mindset, and choose whatever makes their children happy.

She reveals that they are also planning on working with the Central Academy of Drama to adapt the book's story into a musical show for children to perform.

"I feel that what's regrettable nowadays is the excessive fragmentation of information, which poses a significant threat to children. We are doing our best to enrich children's education, ensuring they gain more knowledge besides music," Wang says.
