If you want to teach your kids Chinese, but don't speak it yourself, you've come to the right place. The resources I've chosen to compile here are a result of my experiences (as a mom and teacher) and the influences of my background in language development, literacy, and education. I hope that the ideas here will help you find creative ways to teach your children Chinese.

loveChinese iPad App
loveChinese 小宝宝学中文- This is a quiz-type program. The primary purpose of the app is to reinforce already studied basic vocabulary, not to teach the vocabulary- so you'll need to introduce the vocabulary to your kids before they use the app. The lite version (free) will quiz your child on numbers (Chinese characters 1-9), shapes, and colors. There are nine additional packs (fruits & vegetables, transportation, animals, daily necessities, occupation, insects & birds, numbers (Arabic), basic words (1), and basic words (2)) that you can purchase.
Kids earn e-stickers as rewards, and parents can determine how often those rewards are earned on the Settings page. The nice thing about this app is that you can set it to display注音符號(ㄅㄆㄇㄈ), or Mainland Chinese pinyin. You also control whether simplified or traditional characters are displayed.
