Reading to children has proven to be of great importance
Reading to children has proven to be of great importance as it helps not only in their cognitive development process but also in their language acquisition and literacy skills. For kids learning foreign languages, books about the culture with the target language can help further language acquisition and inspire children to learn more, since children will learn knowledge related to the language whilst also getting familiar with the cultural background. If you read books about Chinese culture to your kids, they will get to know more about the local people and their tradition, which in turn will also help them to understand Mandarin Chinese better. Here are some fun books for you to choose from!
In the book, a child describes the various dim sums she and her family enjoyed during a visit to a restaurant in Chinatown. According to the Chinese tradition, they share their food with each other so that everyone gets a bit of everything. The book is right for young children as it celebrates a cultural custom and a universal favorite activity, eating! It’s easy to get obsessed with the idea of going to a restaurant and picking out your own “little” dishes of food. In addition, the illustrations in the book are bright, bold, and beautiful! Perfect for children. Dim Sum for Everyone was written by Grace Lin and was published on January 15, 2003.
This is a favorite story set in a bustling contemporary Chinatown. It’s Chinese New Year day, Goldy Luck’s mother asks her to take a plate of turnip cakes to the neighbors. The Chans aren’t home, but that doesn’t stop Goldy from trying out their rice porridge, their chairs, and their beds—with disastrous results. In this funny and festive retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, the authors introduce a plucky girl who takes responsibility for her actions and makes a new friend (and a whole plate of turnip cakes!), just in time for Chinese New Year.
It also shows the days of Chinese New Year and how to make turnip cake! Goldy Luck and the three pandas was written by Natasha Yim, illustrated by Grace Zong, and was published on January 7, 2014.
