Lessons for young and old at mixed-use center

YINCHUAN - Waves of children's laughter, giggles and cheers echo in the halls of a nursing home for the elderly in Yinchuan city, Ningxia Hui autonomous region.

The Jinseyangguang Nursing Home, which means golden sunshine in Chinese, is not a typical senior care center as it pairs the very old with the very young, with its kindergarten located inside the nursing home.

At 3:20 pm from Monday to Friday, children and residents come together in a variety of planned activities and "Plants vs Zombies" is the most popular one these days, according to Hao Qianshuai, head of the nursing department.
