To showcase the emotional world of contemporary Chinese children, help them understand the true essence of love, and experience the joy of loving and being loved, the Office of the National Committee on Youth Work, the China Educational Association, Sina.com, and Zhejiang Children's Publishing House jointly launched and organized the "The Education of Love: Emotional Diary of Chinese Children" writing competition.
