Recommending children's reading website starfall.com


One of my friends just told me about this website http://www.starfall.com/. My to-be-kindergartener son and pre-schooler daughter just fell in love with this website.

Tonight, we read the Chinese Fables (http://www.starfall.com/n/level-c/chinese-fables/load.htm?f) together. They just love all the stories and I am so surprised they fostered the interest of Chinese culture/stories in this way, via this website. All Chinese fables/idioms were just directly translated to English, it is a bit funny, but it just worked great and lead the kids raised a lot of questions and had a lot of chuckles along the way.

How many of these Chinese Fables do you know about?

Draw Dragon Dot Eyes

Dung-Shi Copies Eyebrows

Yay-Gung Loves Dragons

One Rice Thousand Gold

Morning Three Night Four ------->My son's favorite :)

Cup Bow Snake Reflection


Thanks to starfall, and highly recommend to all moms with school age kids.
