《小星星》- a song that is suitable for young children

This song is suitable for young children, especially K-2 students. It is originally from the well-known “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”. For 2nd language learners, they will master quickly. It is also a great sense of accomplishment for children to sing 《小星星》in the early stages of learning Chinese. If the teacher can ‘add’ some actions while singing along, kids will enjoy it more.
For young children, like Trump's granddaughter, it is certainly fantastic to be able to sing 《茉莉花》 in front of Xi Jinping. But from the perspective of child psychology, songs that fit the mind and maturity of a child may be more engaging. For more information, email learnchinesewhilesinging@gmail.com
