Letter to Santa - A kid Chinese learning book

Your kids are going to learn how to write a letter to Santa in Chinese from this book app. Simply tapping the picture of the little girl (Lele) or the little boy (Ningning), your kids can read their letters to Santa. 

In Play module, the Bingo games encourage kids to recognize the four Chinese phrases related to Christmas ( Santa,  Christmas, Merry Christmas, Christmas wishes). The Memory games help kids memorize 6 unique characters used in the above 4 phrases. 

All the characters used in the Play module are also introduced in flashcard format (pinyin, English, usage info) for further reviewing.

Have fun in your holiday Chinese learning adventure!

Be organized

I'm working on my 10th and 11th apps. They are available in App Store very soon, hopeful by this Christmas.

 A few days ago, I was thinking of a way to organize all the apps on my iPad. Previously all my developed apps, pre-installed and other downloaded apps were mixed together on the screen pages. It was really not convenient for me to find the one when I need it.

 I started searching the articles about organizing apps. I was surprised that it was fun to create new folders and categorize my apps.

 Here are the brief steps:

 (1) Press your finger on the app you want to create a folder for, and hold it for one second, all the app icons are shaking and a "Delete" icon is showed on top left of each app icon.

For example, when I pressed the app "1stGradeHFW", its icon was showed as follows.



(2) I wanted the above two apps "1stGradeHFW" and "CHMath" are in the same folder. I dragged one app on top of another, a new folder was showed as follows:






(3) I tapped the Folder name and changed it to "My App Store". See the screenshot below:




(4) I moved all my developed apps to this folder by dragging and dropping. Now they are separated from my other apps. A screenshot for my new folder "My App Store":



By the way, my iOS got upgraded from 5 to 6, and I am getting familiar with it.  :-)

itune link of Times table in Chinese



This app can help kids learn Chinese numbers (simplified) as well as simple multiplications.

Each "rectangle" can be tapped for its Chinese pronunciation in "Times table" and "Chinese" modules. The Quiz module encourages the kids to remember the basic Chinese numbers.

Have fun in math and Chinese. Please feel free to send me any comments.
