I was born in Yunnan, China. Congratulations on using your instinct. Chinese is such a different language that I believe it is going to be good training for Tadpole’s brain when she becomes a Frog. By the way there are items Chinese in my blog – mainly food and even a picture of a Blue Jean Frog from Costa Rica.

Wish I could do it that easily (I’m working on it). Maybe she has a career ahead of her as a professional interpreter for the U.N. or something.

And it must be asked- do Tadpole and Evelyne talk now? I mean, I know you said Tadpole’s vocabulary in Chinese is limited, but the idea of making the effort is an incredibly sweet one.

There’s something about little children singing, it always gets me. I’m the one snivelling at the back of all the school assemblies!

You know, that second song (I sing, I dance) is set to the same tune as an old hillbilly favorite from the U.S. Althought the lyrics are admittedly darker…

“Oh my darlin, oh my darlin, oh my darlin Clementine,
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine.”

Seeing as I know how to play that one on the banjo, this may be the makings of a cross-cultural girl band?

I’d probably say something like “hao ke ai le” which is perhaps more akin to ‘very cute’ but is the kind of thing people say about small children.

You need to sort an audio book out… with Tadpole doing all her own parts!

Brace yourself for those firecrackers on the 8th!
