"...My husband and I are Chinese-speakers and I teach Chinese at college level... We soon realized that there are not that many good textbooks to teach Chinese to children. With Chinese Made Easy for Kids we finally found an easy and entertaining book to teach written Chinese to our four year old... The textbook has fun, colorful illustrations, and the workbook is full of entertaining and creative activities. This book is a great way to introduce your child to Chinese. It comes with a CD so, if you do not speak Chinese at home, your child (and you) can still mimic the sounds and learn how to speak the language. I would rate this book with 5 stars."

The teacher should:

• provide every opportunity for kids to use their listening and speaking skills. The exercises in the books can be modified to match the children's ability.
