Mandarin for Kids: What Toys do Chinese Kids Prefer to?



When it comes to the toys kids like to play with, we might as well divide them into boys and girls, because their appetites are totally different. Generally speaking, boys have the common interest all over the world. They all like to play the “玩具模型(wan2 ju4 mo2 xing2)”, which includes many types of toys. For example, “玩具枪(wan2 ju4 qinag1)” is the most popular one of the boys. They can use it to organize a minimal battle. “I like the feeling of holding the popgun in my hand and saying “biu1biu1” ”, a Chinese boy said. Because the topic today is for learning Chinese for kids, let us get to know the structure of the phrase “玩具枪(wan2 ju4 qiang1)”. It is combined with “玩具(wan2 ju4)” and “(qiang1)” and both of them are nouns. You may change the “” into other characters such as “汽车(qi4 che1)” and “飞机(fei1 ji1)”. Sometimes we can understand the “玩具” here as “模型(mo2 xing2), which means model”.
How about the girls? Of course “芭比娃娃(ba1 bi3 wa2 wa5)” is their favorite. This word I suppose is familiar to you. It is a transliterated word from English. That is “Barbie doll”. Nowadays, with the development of technology, the Barbie doll has also been advanced greatly. There appear many automatic doll which can chat with kids in Chinese. In this way, kids learn Chinese efficiently and they can get to learn how to communicate in Chinese in daily life. For example, the doll may ask you “你叫什么名字呀?(ni3 jiao4 shen2 me5 ming2 zi4)”.
