Brenda,

Thanks for sharing It's a very meaningful song.

I used to love listening to Chinese songs, but quite out of touch nowadays.

Hi Tamarind

You're welcome.

Another interesting thing is that dd yesterday asked me to goggle the song of 王昭君出塞曲. She told me that that 王昭君 is one of the China four Beauties and she gets this info. from Xiao bai long.

Brenda,
I am really impressed that you have successfully developed a good interest in the Chinese language and culture in your dd. My girl likes to read Chinese novels now, but I do hope that she will also be interested in the history and culture of China like your dd does

Hi tamarind

In fact the series of xiao bai long carry plenty of China history and culture; I remembered the story inclusive of 赶尸，秦始皇，缠足，刺绣 etc. We had bought total about more than 30 books two years ago in book fair and popular.

Brenda,
What is this xiao bei dong? Sounds interesting and great resource for getting kids to be interested in Chinese history and culture.

Sorry of my poor HYPY and it should be xiao bai long instead. This is the comics come with few short stories per book. The main characters are stories of 阿伦 and 小白龙. The contents are printed without HYPY and they do include the HYPY for certain difficult word at the bottom of the respective page.

Hi Tanarind,


I have one qn. If we just get the child to read and when they come across words which they do not know and we explain to them the meaning. But if they do use than in their speech or compo, how are they going to improve their chinese??

I am at a dilemma on how to teach my son one boy chinese…
Can advise?

Tx

Thank you
