### 5/5 — I am 38 and using this

*2023-02-21*

New to learning mandarin. Finding “adult” learning programs too difficult, thought maybe I need to start at preschool at the level when languages are first learned. Effective, and little games make it more interesting.

### 5/5 — Great learning tool!

*2017-03-31*

My toddler loves this game.  The graphics are great and the games really help him learn the basics.
