Ethan reading Mandarin @ 23mths old
1,855 views
I’m so overly excited right now. My little ‘Banana Boy’ can read in Mandarin! I don’t speak a single word of any Chinese dialect, but for the sake of Ethan, we got him some Chinese kindie books and started to teach him simple words such as family members a couple of days ago. Surprisingly, he gets it very fast! Even faster than when I was teaching him to read in English!
Now, I myself needs to memorise those Chinese characters in order to revise with him. @_@
Here is a video of him reading ‘qong qong’, ‘ba ba’, ‘po po’, ‘ma ma’ and ‘jie jie’.
I even got my Chinese student to help me write some word cards for Ethan. ^^ Thank you Ya Ying.
