Did you know that it's so important to create a print-rich environment when learning a new language? A print-rich environment helps foster skills needed for reading. Children begin to discover cues that help them figure out words they see which lays the foundation for reading. Finally, a print-rich environment also spurs an interest in writing. Children want to model what they see around them and communicate in written form. If children are in an environment that has labels, signs and charts, they will be exposed to letters, words and numbers early and make connections between the letters and the functions they serve. We are three moms based on the East Coast who are extremely passionate about passing on Chinese culture and language to our kids. Each set comes with 10 posters and each poster covers a different important topic in a child’s life: Body, Jobs, Food, Transportation, Animals, Colors, Holidays, Vegetables, Clothing, Fruits. What you'll get:LEARN WITH NATIVE MANDARIN SPEAKERS. Each poster comes with its own learning / audio video narrated by a native speaker. MONTESSORI-INSPIRED BILINGUAL CONTENT. All content in English, Mandarin, and PinYin for easy learning. CREATE A PRINT-RICH ENVIRONMENT. A print-rich environment fosters skills needed for reading and writing, especially important when learning a new language. PREMIUM QUALITY. Unlike other poster sets, these are laminated, shipped flat, and durable that will stand the test of time and teething toddlers.

Good quality, fast delivery, educational
These posters are a nice quality and laminated. They are great for teaching basics in both English and Mandarin Chinese. Super fast fulfillment and delivery! I ordered them on Nov 26 and they arrived Nov 28. I like the real images, which I think aid in learning more than cartoon images. Really pleased with these and will be buying any future posters offered by this seller.

Great addition to playroom
Colorful and good quality, perfect for our play room. My toddler likes to look at it and ask me what things are. He showed off his language skills at dinner: “I like 胡萝卜, carrots” haha

Traditional Chinese in the titles of the simplified version. They are good but could be better
The errors could be found in every piece of the posters. And I hoped the animal piece could have included milk cow, dog, cat, bunny. Overall the product had very good quality and my kid loved looking at the pictures!

Excellent addition to your Chinese language learning tools
I ordered these because I’m not that fluent in Mandarin and really want my daughter to learn! The posters arrived quickly, were shipped flat, and are laminated (and durable). My daughter loves them! She often will walk over to the posters and start pointing and trying to read off of them. I especially love that they have English, pinyin, and Mandarin to help a non-native speaker like me learn alongside my daughter. A bonus is the learning videos available on their website. Super happy with the posters, and it’s clear the moms who created it worked really hard on making this a great product for little ones.

Great Mandarin Tool
I bought the Simplified set for my child. I am very pleased. On each top corner there is a QR code that brings you to a YouTube video (just open your phone’s camera and hover over the QR code and a link will pop up). The videos are of good quality and my child likes to see each item on the screen and then point to it on the poster. At the end, each item is repeated without the picture being shown so it is a good way to test knowledge. Depending on how old your child is, they may figure out that the items are read in the order in which they appear and not in any type of random order. The holiday video does show up, but there is no voice saying each item as they appear like the other videos do.One thing of note is that although many words are the same in Mainland China and Taiwan, when there is a difference, the words on the posters are the Taiwan ones. There aren’t a ton (the color orange, potato, bicycle) but just be aware, especially if you are not fluent and your child already knows a different word for these.The posters where shipped flat in a box in a plastic bag (which is great for storage if you aren’t hanging these) and there was no bending. Overall I am very pleased with this set and I will definitely be looking at other items offered by this company.

great learning tool!
I liked the size. Not too big and not too small. Made of durable material. Very useful to help my child learn basic names. Good buy.

The simplified Chinese is a mess
I got the simplified posters to try and teach my toddler my native language. Parts of the chart are in traditional Chinese. Some of the words used aren't words that I'd use, though this could be nodded to regional differences.The chart itself, aside from the word choices, is well made. Definitely has held up to my toddler manhandling. (Him ripping off the walls and me pasting it back)

I got these for my grandchildren to whom I'm trying to teach Chinese. They are beautiful!
