📘 Read the Getting Started To-Do List

(Applicable age: 2 years old ~ elementary school students, also suitable for non-native speaking families / families with no children)


✅ Step 1: Develop a habit of reading every day

  • Read together at a fixed time (e.g. after breakfast/before bed/before lunch)

  • Read only 1-2 Lele Primary Books (Red Books) each time

  • No need for tests or pronunciation correction, just listen to stories with him.

📌 Reminder: The goal at the beginning is not to teach children to recognize words, but to build their familiarity and love for Chinese books.


✅ Step 2: Enable the reading pen to create an immersive voice environment

  • It doesn't matter if your child can't read. Let him read the book and listen to the story.

  • Letting him "operate" the reading pen by himself every day is the key to building his self-learning ability

  • Encourage him to listen to his favorite story pages again, even if it’s the 100th time!

📌 Remember: The reading pen is not a tool, but a language playmate for children.


✅ Step 3: Repeat reading + story re-enactment

  • Guide children to reread familiar books (each book in the Lele Red Book series has a small amount of text, suitable for repeated reading)

  • You can try the "switch books and mix and match reading method": one book is about "bathing" and the other is about "eating", and you can read them in turn to create a new story.

  • Role-playing and telling stories with dolls can help children "export language"

📌 The point is not fast, but stable: The joy of reading + repeated input is the key to literacy!


✅ Step 4: Parents establish a sense of ritual for "speaking Chinese"

  • You can set aside a period of time to interact with your child in Chinese only (e.g. bedtime story time)

  • Even if you are not fluent in Chinese, you can still learn with the Lele Reading Pen

  • The most important language teacher for your child is actually you!


✅ Step 5: Continue + relax and look forward to it

  • Don't force yourself to recognize a few words in a few days, and don't set a reading volume goal

  • As long as you have contact and like it every day, it is the best starting point

  • Every page is a brick in the foundation of language
