The inspiration for this product comes from my daughter, a 2 year old Chinese-American girl. As a working mother I have little time to teach her Chinese. After talking to other parents with have similar backgrounds, I discovered that they have the same problem. I also have met non-Chinese families who go through a lot of trouble trying to find a reliable nanny to teach their children Chinese as a second language. Thus, the birth of this product - First Chinese Flash Cards. Hopefully this app will help make learning Chinese simple, convenient, and fun and can encourage parents and their children to spend more time together.

This product can also be used by anyone else who wants to learn Chinese in simple steps. For more Chinese learning check out amberwd.com
