comprehension of Mandarin-language.

Look for Mandarin Nursery Rhymes and Children's Songs:

Singing songs and reciting rhymes are wonderful ways to help your child learn Mandarin. Look for age-appropriate materials that are specifically designed for young learners. Sing and recite the Mandarin songs and rhymes together with your child. Encourage them to join in and mimic the pronunciation and rhythm. These songs often use simple vocabulary, repetitive patterns, and catchy melodies that make it easier for children to learn and remember. 

Repeat and Practice:

Repetition is key to language learning. Repeat the songs and rhymes regularly to reinforce vocabulary and pronunciation. Encourage your child to practice on their own or with you during playtime, before bedtime, or even during mealtime. By making it a regular part of your child's routine, they will become familiar with the language.

Play Games:

Turning vocabulary learning into fun games can make the process more enjoyable for your child. Such as action game(If you say "跳跃" (tiàoyuè), they can jump up and down), guessing game(If the word is "苹果" (píngguǒ), you can say, "It's a fruit that is round and usually red or green."), storytelling game (Create a story together using the vocabulary words. Start with a simple sentence and take turns adding new sentences, incorporating the vocabulary words.) etc. 

Remember, the key is to make Mandarin learning a positive and enjoyable experience for your child. By incorporating these tips into your daily routine, you can help your 2-year-old kids develop a foundation in Mandarin while having fun together.
