    Growing up in a small town, my high school only offered French as a language class. Honestly, I never planned to use French in real life. Three of the most used languages in America are English, Spanish, and Chinese. Knowing these three languages is necessary if you want to succeed in the job market today.

    Lighting-fast Chinese for Kids and Families is written for parents/guardians to help their children to learn Chinese in a fast and simple manner. There are fifteen different conversations that you can learn while performing daily tasks, like preparing dinner; walking outside; etc. During meals you can simple ask the question ‘What’s for breakfast, lunch or dinner?’, and teach your family how to reply by repeating a few Chinese words. Children can easily learn a language by pointing to a favorite toy and teaching them what the word is in another language.



    There also several activities that can help you learn Chinese, like map game word list, treasure hunt, scavenger hunts, and even bingo. In addition, there are a few games like hokey pokey, concentration, twister and more. While you are playing these activities and games, you are learning new words.

    The book is a wonderful and is an easy way to learn a new language. Learning a new language can be a fun experience for a family. I recommend it to everyone.
