BEIJING, April 3 (Xinhua) -- On a recent weekday in Shanghai, a small boy walked through a subway gate without ducking or squeezing. The turnstile, redesigned as a rounded arch at a child's height, allowed him to pass through upright smoothly.It's a really thoughtful touch, very convenient, said his parents.The small adjustment reflects a broader shift across China toward reimagining facilities, services and policies from a child's height.After years of building more playgrounds and family amenities, China is now expanding the scope and upgrading the quality of its child-friendly development, highlighting a one-meter perspective principle, roughly the eye level of a young child.The call was made by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), the country's top economic planner, and the State Council's working body on women and children in recently released policy guidelines.The concept of child-friendly cities emerged during China's 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025) when cities were encouraged to support children's safe and healthy development. By the end of 2025, a total of 116 cities had launched pilot programs, benefiting over 110 million children.Now, the effort is entering a new phase: from scattered urban pilots to a nationwide, institutionalized framework spanning both urban and rural areas at a higher level.It is not just a physical upgrade of public spaces, said Zhang Jing, former chief planner of the China Academy of Urban Planning and Design. It represents a deeper reshaping of how cities are planned and governed.In earlier years, the task was to build more playgrounds and activity centers. Today, the focus has shifted to whether those facilities actually work for children.Consider a familiar scene for many parents: lifting a toddler to an adult-height sink in a public restroom, which can be both cumbersome and a little risky. The new guidelines call for more child-accessible facilities in malls, transit hubs and tourist sites....
