Chang points out that today's children entertain themselves differently than his generation did: "We played in the fields when we were kids. Children today watch TV and play video games. Their childhood is completely removed from the soil." Chang feels that Life-Camp activities are a good thing in that they get the kids outside and doing things on the land in and around Meinung.
「小時候我們在田野跑，現在的孩子看電視、玩遊樂器，童年生活完全脫離土地」，他認為，藉由兒童生態體驗營的活動，可以把孩子拉出來，在美濃的土地上活動，是件很好的事。
