Wash Hands And Sing Two Tigers Song in Chinese

Wash hands and sing two tigers in Chinese | Miss Panda Chinese

With the current coronavirus situation, many kids and families are at home.  Parents are working at home.  Children are at home with or without online schooling.

We are here to support families and educators.   I have received kind notes from world language educators in China and Taiwan.  They want to share with us what they have learned from what is also happening on their side of the world.  From these Chinese educators to the CDC and NPR, they cannot stress enough the importance of washing hands.

For children, in addition to singing the ABC song, we can add a Mandarin song.  Singing is a simple way to keep kids wash hands thoroughly for 20 seconds.  Parents can adjust the speed of singing the song and make it even more interesting.

The Hand-washing technique posters are from NHS.  We have remixed it with the Two Tigers song in Chinese, pinyin, and English.  Both traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese versions are available for you to download.
