More fun with Bao Bei!
I love that this video series features children of all ages and many ethnicities -- so welcome in our bi-racial household. My kids love repeating after Bao Bei and friends. This DVD series makes my kids WANT to learn more Chinese and encourages my kids to use the vocabulary they learn here. We can't decide which DVD we like best in the series (you can watch them in any order), so our family recommends you get them all.

Love all the Bao Bei DVDs!!
I am a Chinese American while my husband is Caucasian. Although we speak English at home, we really want our daughters to be able to speak Mandarin as well. The Bao Bei DVDs have been great and definitely a hit in our home. My almost 3 year old is always asking to watch Bao Bei and my 10 month old is fascinated by the colors and characters in the DVDs.

What's most fascinating is that my almost 3 year old now can name all the colors as well as count in Mandarin. If you are a parent and want your kids exposed to and learn Mandarin Chinese, definitely get all the Bao Bei DVD series!

Great series, perfect intro to Chinese for youngsters!
This DVD is fun and not overwhelming for my two-year-old and my four-year-old. Bao Bei definitely captures their attention (and affection!!) and inspires my children to repeat words and phrases in Chinese. I think that this is a perfect introductory series for English-speaking children. I have tried other DVDs, which had WAY too much information for kids and were too much like drills. The kids in this video are multi-ethnic and of various ages, which I really appreciate. My kids adore Bao Bei and her cricket friend. The quality of this series is tops! I especially like the close up of the mouth in volumes 3 and 4 - it really helps older kids and adults to see to pronounce words.

GREAT DVDs
We have all 4 DVDs for my 6 month old son and HE LOVES BAO BEI the panda.. I am having fun learning too! Just enough vocab etc not a drill sergeant DVD!

Best one so far!

We own all four Early Start Mandarin DVDs and love them! We hope another video will come out soon. My kids have learned a lot from Bao Bei and love to watch the videos over and over again. The videos are entertaining and beautifully filmed. The cast of children is of varying ages and of different ethnicities. The amount of vocabulary taught in each video is not overwhelming to our children, so the videos don't feel like they are drills to our kids. The kids are learning a lot, though!
