Turn Huashan into a natural classroom! We bring geological hammers and magnifying glasses up the mountain, allowing kids to learn geology while playing, sharing a super meaningful parent-child scientific exploration route.
🔍 Fun Task List
① Find "Fish Stone" (fault fossils on the Qinglongbei of West Peak)
② Collect five different rock fragments (granite, gneiss, etc.)
③ Use your phone to take photos of three geological structures (joints, folds, faults)
🗺️ Scientific Exploration Route Plan
Yuquan Courtyard → Huashan Gate → Maonü Cave → Qingkeping → Huixin Stone → Qianchizhuang → North Peak → Canglong Ridge
✨ Teaching Highlights:
• Observe glacial striations at Qianchizhuang
• Learn about "knife ridge" landforms at Canglong Ridge
• Overlook the Huashan fault zone from the North Peak summit
📚 Knowledge Preparation Pack
Watch the "Huashan Geological Evolution" animation with kids in advance
Prepare mineral identification cards to compare with mountain rocks
Bring a portable microscope to observe rock mineral crystals
⚠️ Safety Notes
• Children must wear anti-slip gloves when holding chains
• Geological hammers must be used under full parental supervision
• For dangerous sections, you can pay 30 yuan to experience a protective lock (cash)
Our 6-year-old completed the scientific exploration handbook independently, then actively researched and wrote an observation diary at home. This immersive learning experience is much more meaningful than ordinary sightseeing!
