The Mandarin you will hear

Begin with spoken numbers one to three and the symbols 1, 2, 3. Later levels extend to 5 and 10.

找数字 1: Find number 1.
找数字 3: Find number 3.

With sound enabled, the game uses local MP3s, with browser speech or cue sounds as a fallback.

Help with the first try

Point to a number while naming it once. This version matches written number symbols, not quantities or Chinese number characters.

Auto gives 4 / 6 / 8 rounds by level. Saved parent round-count and sound settings still apply; check them before starting.

Try it away from the screen

Count one to three large blocks together and place them beside a written number. This quantity activity is an adult-led extension.

Exiting a Mandarin game opens the game library in your saved site language, or Chinese if no language is saved.

Parent Tips

Join the first game and check whether the spoken numbers and symbols are familiar.
Demonstrate a match if needed; saying the number aloud is optional.
A correct choice does not show that your child can count that many objects. Stay with 1-3 while getting familiar.
Celebrate effort instead of speed.
