Chinese songs for kids is an easy and fun way for kids to learn Mandarin. Children already enjoy music and hearing the same song on repeat, making this an easy way to expose children to a second language in an engaging way. 

Just think of how you learned the ABCs or how a well known melody will conjure up lyrics we haven’t sung in years! Setting words to music makes it a lot easier for people of all ages to commit things to memory.

Singing is also easier than speaking a new language. Especially in tonal languages like Mandarin Chinese, starting by learning how to sing a song will make picking up the language a lot easier. 

Lyrics in Chinese songs for kids will also help children pick up common vocabulary words and train their sponge-like brains for both language comprehension and speaking.

Best of all, playing songs at home or in the car is stress free for busy parents like me!

Below are Chinese kids songs with lyrics that are simple, sung more clearly and at a slower pace. Most of the songs have lyrics that are not overpowered by the music. Some albums also touches on everyday activities such as bathing, brushing teeth, eating meals that can be learned and sung during the day to help pick up the language.
