Since the start of nursery this year, Hannah has shown a greater willingness and interest in conversing and singing in Chinese. I’m ashamed to say mommy and daddy didn’t really do anything much to encourage her in that direction except for the occasional role modelling. I suspect her main motivation comes from her Chinese teacher at the nursery school. Her ye ye (paternal grandpa) and nai nai (paternal grandma) have also been a positive influence as well.
The rate that she’s picking up Chinese is also faster now. The video clip below shows her singing yet another new Chinese song taught in school.
Lyrics of the song for those who can read Chinese:
我是一个好宝宝, 天天上学校
看见老师有礼貌, 同学也要好
会做工作 会画图
唱歌游戏做体操
好宝宝 好宝宝
我要做一个好宝宝
Somehow I had missed this until today. (And here I was poised to ask how her Chinese had been going as of late.)
Very cute! This gave us all a smile.
Thanks, Matt :)
Hope to take more videos of her growing years – have been taking less as compared to before.
