The main contents of baby games

Baby play pictures are drawn with ancient porcelain pieces with sports themes in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, among which there are many Cuju plays. Cuju is playing football, which is an ancient sport in China.

Cuju has a long history in China. According to Records of Historical Records and Biography of Su Qin, Su Qin told the capital of Qi that Linzi was rich and real, and its people were all players who played flute, drums and bows. Kicking bow is cuju, which shows that this sport existed in China during the Warring States Period two thousand years ago. In the Tang Dynasty, this sport became more prosperous, and both Xuanzong and Tang Wenzong loved it. Wang Wei has a saying: "Cuju crosses birds repeatedly, and the swing competes for weeping willows." It means I had a good time playing football. Since the Song Dynasty, both Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin and Song Huizong Zhao Ji praised Cuju. The map of Song Taizu Cuju is in Shanghai Museum. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Lu You also wrote a poem to record the grand occasion of cuju: "Liangzhou has a cold food of 100,000, and it is full of cuju."

Cuju is an ancient sport, which has been included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage in China. Many scholars believe that today's football, which is popular all over the world, originated from Cuju in China, and their arguments are based on historical facts.

Cuju has been very popular among the people since the Ming Dynasty, so we should pay attention to promoting this sport to educate children. In this group of ancient porcelain, there are "sons playing with the ball" and "two children fighting for the ball" dressed in exquisite clothes. Many pictures of porcelain tiles seem to reflect the real situation at that time, such as "kicking the ball with the flag" representing victory, and "cheerleaders" inspired by the trumpet. The physical education of preschool education in Ming Dynasty was not limited to Cuju. In this group of ancient porcelain, there are Tai Chi, Young Dancer and Wrestler's Fight. These tiles are gathered together, and Chi Cheng joked that it was a "sports meeting" performed on ancient ceramics.
