children in china make creative social-distancing hats inspired by ancient headwear

designed and handmade by themselves, these children at a primary school in hangzhou have come up with an inventive way to make sure they social-distance from their classmates. essentially creating a one-meter zone around them, the ‘wings’ of the hats makes reference to an ancient design worn by song dynasty emperors hundreds of years ago. colored and decorated with the pupil’s individual personality, the photos taken from the school show a fun and accessible way for the kids to learn how to help stop the spread of COVID-19.  With their long extensions, the hats are reminiscent of the eye-catching headpieces that used to be worn by emperors and officials of the song dynasty, which ruled china from 960 until 1279.

Perfect way of demonstrating the ysdwysd. lifestyle. Children are our present. Keep dreaming.
