Learning Mandarin Through Popular Children's Songs
A fun way for children to learn Chinese is through songs. We have compiled a list of the most popular Chinese songs accesible on the Internet. You can check them out and have some fun with your kids. However most of the Chinese songs do not have English translation. We have prepared an instructional booklet of the songs, with MP4 videos on a DVD for the Chinese Summer Camp. Please feel free to email Dr. Li if you wish to purchase the instruction masterials.
The DVD contains the actual MP4 video materials that allow a student to play/practice the Songs when off-line (when no internet connection is available). Here is an example of the on-line version.A student can play all of these songs outside of the house, with a computer that has a CD/DVD drive.
