Dance and Learn Chinese with Mei Mei is a lively and educational video filmed in Anhui Province, with the help of a small group of beautiful young local children (aged 4-8). Throughout this collection of songs and dances, the dedication and talent of these youngsters is reflected in their shining faces. The sheer joy of being alive in a beautiful world is expressed in their dancing. |
|
| The artistry of the choreography and the subtlety of the filming technique help to express the beauty of these Chinese children’s songs. Each song is presented with English, Pinyin and Chinese characters on-screen for maximum educational benefit. The dances are designed to be easy to emulate by your children as they watch. As with the audio CD, there is plenty of material here for an imitative performance of creative movement. Families and teachers of Chinese culture should find it a splendid resource! A companion booklet is also available with English, Pinyin and Chinese characters for all songs. | ||

Speak and Sing Chinese with Mei Mei is a new audio CD containing 7 language lessons interspersed with 11 beautiful songs. Lessons include Numbers, Parts of the Body, Action Words, Greetings, Family Names and Ages and Parent Talk. A companion booklet is also available with English, Pinyin and Chinese characters for all songs. My husband wrote the musical arrangements, performed all the musical parts and did all the recording. | |
| We were motivated by a shared vision of family sing-alongs, game playing and role-playing entertainment. We pictured productive travel time in the family car; a shared learning experience with frequent singing breaks to lighten the mood and pass the time in a pleasant way. This CD is also perfect for the purpose of preparing a performance. It is deliberately paced for learning with just the appropriate number of repetitions. I am sure that “Speak and Sing Chinese with Mei Mei” will prove to be a wonderful asset in the home, car and classroom. | ||

By exploring such topics as family life, proper manners, the importance of friends, and the beauty of nature, children are introduced to many different aspects of Chinese culture. Each of the short stories is presented in a loving family environment and friendly neighborhood and presents a plot where the child gets into trouble, and then is guided by understanding adults to solve the difficulty and learn a gentle lesson at the same time. | ||

Moms Review Mei Mei's Products...
Below are a some reviews written by moms who use Mei Mei's language resources for their kids. "Our girls love your new CD. They have listened to it in the car at least 10 times already, since it arrived on Saturday. They really like it because they recognize the songs from your first video." - Liz, a mother of two "We listen to the CD every morning in the car, or any other time we get in the car, and it has made a big difference already in Claire's ability to speak Chinese. She also loves to dance with the girls from China and happily sings along." - Marie, a mother of one "I LOVE your new video. It is absolutely delightful. I watched it with Jasmine last night and we both got really excited about it. It is fun, beautiful, and a great format for learning Chinese. The girls are adorable! Such a joy to watch, I just want to hug each one. I love the fact that the words in English, Pinyin, and characters are on the screen to read. Jasmine and I were especially excited because we are starting to be able to recognize and read some pinyin and characters." - Janice, mother of one "The video is just wonderful. Really, it is superb. We know some of the songs already, but not all, so it is perfect for us at this time. Shufen sang along as well as she could for the whole tape, and imitated the dancing, her attention never wavered (mine either). At one point, during Liang Zhi Lao Hu, she shouted out 'Sing it again, Mei Mei!' I had to laugh. Thank you so much, Mei Mei!" - Lois, mother of one "I have a cute story. When Tianna saw your picture on the screen she yelled out, 'Mei Mei!,' and then she said, 'I Love Mei Mei!' :) My older daughter, Torielle, said to tell you that she LOVES your video and she thinks your daughter is SO cute! We are really enjoying the video so much and listen to the CD and sing along all the time in the car!" - Vicki, mother of two "We just got back from our Mandarin Lesson. The twins are in the living room watching your new video again. They are singing and dancing! They love it!" - Nancy, mother of twins
