讲华语运动

Recently, David made an observation. Thaleia would give us quite a blank look when we start to speak to her in Chinese. So the campaign is on. Mummy is in charge of speaking Mandarin and reading Mandarin storybooks while Daddy does the English.



How Day 1 of the 讲华语运动 ended:





If only there were more Mandarin stories available in boardbook versions. That would save us some scotch tape.

  1. Haha! Yes, Thaleia's mom is a Chinese rep for 27/97 so I'm sure the daughter will master her mandarin!
    Two important phases she must know are "qiong qiong si yi" and "shang xia bu an"!

  3. Hello, my friends from London..

    Puppy - Thanks for remembering all the "important" details in life. Hhahaa

    May Yong - yeah the stories were a little too long. I think I enjoyed the book more than she did!
