Help your child learn Chinese (Mandarin) today! Chinese for Kids teaches the most used Chinese words and phrases through the voices of Beijing natives paired with beautiful, memorable, images. The “Rosetta Stone” style gives instant feedback so your child can learn Chinese like their first language, without the monotony of rote translation.
Your child will learn Chinese words, tones, and characters organically through the use of natural association in a fun learning game. Chinese for Kids is specifically designed for children, but includes translations as well so you can work with your child in learning basic Mandarin Chinese.
Chinese for Kids was designed by a team of professional Chinese language teachers who specialize in childrens language learning. The voices of multiple native Beijing Chinese speakers bring the words and phrases kids identify with to life. Our app helps your child recognize Chinese characters and includes Latin style pin-yin to help you read and pronounce the words.
Chinese Topics Include:
Chinese for Kids - Human body
Chinese for Kids - Food
Chinese for Kids - People
Chinese for Kids - School
Chinese for Kids - House

And many more of the most useful words, phrases, and concepts!

Latest reviews of Chinese for Kids app for iPhone and iPad
1:This app crashed every time I tried to open this app. 2:Although this is free the app only comes with four different things that you could learn -body -people -animals -colors This app could be good if it did not crash because it uses the same learning style as roseta stone. I would try this app and if it does not crash then enjoy.
This app WILL be awesome once the glitches are worked out! Too buggy for my 4yr to use. Esp on the numbers. Those who designed this app need to give it to someone who has never used it before and take notes on where they get stuck. I am sure this will be wonderful after a few kinks are worked out.
This app has issues when I first downloaded, but after I hard restarted my phone it has worked beautifully. I have noticed that people are complaining that there are only 4 catagories to choose from but after you master those four you get four more catagories so keep going! I am currently on my 9th category (every time you complete 4 it gives you a new set of 4)and I am wondering how many it has! I love, love, love this app and I cant believe it is free. My 6 yr old loves it too! The only things I wish could be changed are: A sign in area so that when more than one person is playing it would start where you left off and/or a menu area so that I could go back to any catagory that I had already completed. Keep up the good work 321speak.
Its alright... A few issues. Best word for orange is 橘黄, but the app first teaches 橙色, then later goes to 橘黄 without instruction. 男子 not the best basic word. 男人 or 男的 are better first words. Same for woman. 女人 or 女的 are better first words. Duck is usually 鸭子. Otherwise pretty solid. Pronunciation not the best, but not bad.
Nice app for teaching my 6 year old Chinese. we play this on my ipad before bedtime, its like a game we work on together and she loves the pictures. Ive used Rosetta Stone before and this app has a similar style, but geared towards kids
