The 24 Solar Terms at Well Played

Did you know? At Well Played, we celebrate the rhythms of nature by weaving the 24 Solar Terms into our daily activities.

You might ask, “Aren’t those based on four seasons? Do they even apply in a tropical country like Singapore?” 🤔

While Singapore doesn’t experience the four seasons the way temperate countries do, the 24 Solar Terms - rooted in ancient Chinese wisdom - still mark subtle shifts in climate, daylight, and nature that can be observed here too.

Keep your senses sharp and keep an open mind to observe - the ground, the wind, perhaps even the rain. You might just notice the gentle changes as we move from one Solar Term to the next. Because nature has its own way of whispering - even in the tropics.

在艺起玩，我们将二十四节气融入日常活动学习中，让生活更接近自然的节奏。

虽然新加坡没有春夏秋冬的分明季节，但我们还是可以以二十四节气为启发源，学习用二十四节气帮助你我在不同的地方感受到细微气候、光照和自然的变化。

随着季节更迭，如果你开始练习多观察身边的事物包括感受到的天气变化，你或许能察觉到自然在悄悄诉说它的故事哦！

慢慢来，比较快：）
