Did you know that in China, there are more grandparents than ever before? As people live longer, China is finding cool new ways to take care of the elderly.
They call it the “silver economy” because so many people are over 60 years old. But what does that mean? It means they are thinking about how to help older people stay happy and healthy.
One idea is to use robots! 🤖 Some places in China are using robots to help elderly people with everyday tasks, like reminding them to take their medicine or even chatting with them to keep them company.
Another idea is special communities where young and old live together. In these places, kids can learn from the wisdom of the elders, and the elders can enjoy spending time with young people.
China is also combining old traditions with new ways. For example, families still care a lot about taking care of their elders, but now they have more tools and support to do it.
By finding innovative solutions, China is working hard to make sure that when people get old, they can live happily and comfortably. It’s like building a bridge between the old and the new!
