Known as "soft gold", Gambiered Canton gauze (香云纱) is the only silk fabric (织物) that's still hand-dyed (手染的) using natural plants in the world today.

The skill has a history of more than 500 years. In 2008, it was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (国家非物质文化遗产). Ouyang Yongze is an inheritor of the dyeing skills from Guangdong. The man started learning the skills in 2017.

The dyeing process includes 30 steps. It can take up to six months and is done by hand with materials from nature. "The plant shuliang (薯莨), river mud, sunshine, and grass are all important in dyeing," Ouyang told China Daily.

To dye the fabric, workers put it in shuliang juice and let it dry on the grass. They repeat this many times until it turns brownish yellow. Then, they put river mud on it to help shuliang react fully. After washing and drying it again, the fabric turns black!

Mastering the skills is difficult, according to Ouyang, who put full effort into controlling the density (浓度) of shuliang juice. "Too much may cause color loss, and too little may nor lead to a dark enough fabric," he said. "Better control of the density comes after many failures."

Also, the job can be really tiring as workers have to be at work in the sun for 8 hours each day. Only a few people work in the industry, and skilled masters are getting older as fewer young people take part.

Considering this, Ouyang works harder to develop the traditional craft. He has got together other dyeing skills such as tie-dyeing (扎染法) and batik (蜡染) and has worked with famous fashion designers. They turn the silk into both traditional and fashionable clothes that are popular worldwide. He thinks this can help make the craft stay alive and drew people to the industry.

Kids have lots of fun indoor activities nowadays. Three parents and educators are here to share how they encourage children to spend more time outside and connect with nature.

Susie

experienced

educator

To get kids off screen, I advise parents disconnect too. My students have come to enjoy looking out for birds. They also find joy in using binoculars (双筒望远镜) for birdwatching. One of my students is now known as the local 12-year-old birdwatcher in the community. He's now a better birdwatcher than I am!

Juan

volunteer

During a fishing trip with 30 kids aged 10 to 16, I had to get creative to keep them active. So, I came up with an idea: whoever catches a fish gets a gift. Although no one caught a fish, the kids loved it. Next month, we're going to have a boat racing on a nearby river. The key is to create an interesting space and give kids a reason to join in.

Linda

English teacher

When teaching English as a second language, I planned an outdoor math lesson: how to find the size of a garden bed (园圃). But my students didn't want to do it because of the insects (昆虫) and the hot weather, I then suggested growing something they could eat to make them more interested in the garden. This experience changed my mindset (观念) from "I'm taking them outside" to "We're going outside together".
