DVD Reviews of Journeys to the East - The River Dragon King (Learn Chinese for Children)

DVD Review: Journeys to the East
Summary: 5 Stars

We adopted our daughter from China in March 2008 and in December she will be 3. We wanted her to learn Chinese but they don't teach it in our area until she is 5 and we didn't want to wait that long. We ordered Journeys to the East-The River Dragon King and she loves it. It has the numbers, food, body parts,colors and short phrases in Chinese. In the first week of watching the video she has already learned about 6 words. She is even correcting me in the pronunciation of the words. She seems to know the exact dialect of how the words are suppose to be spoken. This is a super video and I hope they come out with more.

DVD Review: the best on market
Summary: 5 Stars

I just best. but this until now is the best. de others is just 20 min too fast, a have a good time i love learn from kids stuff.

DVD Review: Educational and entertainment-the balance more to the educational side
Summary: 5 Stars

My 5-year-old and 3-year-old love the DVD. They have picked up quite a few simple phrases and use them during day-to-day activities.

This DVD's purpose is education first and entertainment second. The producers don't have the production $$$ that Nick Jr. has with Kai Lan, but your children will learn much more from this DVD than any Kai Lan DVD released to date.

I am very satisfied with this purchase.

DVD Review: great intro to Chinese--words and useful phrases
Summary: 5 Stars

My kids and I are learning Chinese for fun and this show has us chattering in Chinese quite a bit. It links vocabulary on food, parts of the body, and useful phrases such as "let's go..(do this)" and "faster!" and "please have some..." The English voices are slightly odd, I think it's just the result of using untrained actors, but you really get a feel for Chinese tones.

DVD Review: Excellent DVD
Summary: 4 Stars

My kids really love this DVD. There is not such a good range of Chinese language learning DVDs for children available in the UK, so I had to buy this from the US site. It works (most of the time) with my elderly multi-region DVD player, but a Region 2 / PAL version would be very welcome!

But, it's good value when compared with equivalent DVDs available in Europe, even with the postage costs added in. The story and structure will be familiar to anyone who has seen Dora the Explorer, and the production seems very professional and high quality. My 2 and 6 year olds can now name colours, fruit and like to sing the Fei Ying flying cloud song. My 2 year old particularly loves it, but it seems to keep them both entertained, and they do seem to be picking up some Chinese too.

Looking forward to the next adventure - and hopefully a multi-region DVD release!
