Limit screen time. What’s screen time It’s the amount of time we spend watching TV, movies, and playing computer games.

There is probably no better symbol of spring than flowers. The peach blossom (花朵) is one of those seasonal flowers. It usually blooms in March and April.
Pinggu district in Beijing, Nanhui County in Shanghai and Longquan Mountain in Chengdu are all good places to enjoy the beautiful peach blossoms.
