Chinese Songs for Kids

Here at TutorMandarin, we love teaching kids Chinese! And what better way to learn Chinese than through songs! Songs are a great way to make language learning fun and memorable. If the song is catchy enough, you’ll sing it over and over and over.

As a bonus, many popular kids Chinese songs are actually originally English songs that have simply been translated into Chinese. So the melodies should be familiar to your children. Ok, enjoy these select songs and follow along with the Chinese, Pinyin, and English.
