Taking this from my blog post (https://briankung.dev/2022/04/13/how-and-why-our-kids-are-learning-chinese/):
Here are some shows on YouTube that we self-host:
- 宝宝巴士 – Baby Bus: shows, lullabies, and nursery rhymes good for babies and up - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCttafJi4SCirZhlxsxISbyA
- 巧虎 – Qiaohu: lots of Asian-style life lessons. Qiaohu was teaching kids to wear masks 3 years before the Covid-19 pandemic - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnjadOj5qlKXsTAXPSwc67A
- 海底小纵队 – Octonauts: a show about saving animals in the ocean that our kids loved - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1HDrSeslwU&list=PLNR4cTkVmPtit4UcSUZkoMNPAZNfGSOa0
- 小猪佩奇 – Peppa Pig: not the parents’ favorite show because the characters can be kind of obnoxious, but the kids like it - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRi0sw4PDw-C2C7fS9hrx5Q
Additionally for older kids, our 8yo has enjoyed:
- 叶罗丽 – Yeluoli, a show about magical dolls and fighting evil
- 小花仙 – Xiaohuaxian, a story about a girl with a magic bracelet
- 绿野仙踪 – The Wizard of Oz: a favorite of my wife's from her childhood. It’s an anime remix of the Wizard of Oz that was originally in Japanese, but she watched it as a kid in China
- 还珠格格 – A period drama about a fake princess
- 白蛇 – An animated movie about a demon snake and the snake catcher who finds her – EDIT – I forgot this one’s not a kids’ show. There is definitely a sex scene. That said, it’s pretty subtle and it went over our kids’ heads.
