Observe the weather and learn Chinese with our interactive Weather Wheel activity! This fun tool allows your little one to track the daily weather by rotating the arrow to the correct weather condition in Chinese. It’s a fantastic way to incorporate Mandarin Chinese into your child’s daily routine, enhancing their language skills while observing the changing weather outside.
This activity is simple to set up with just a printed weather wheel and a bit of rotation magic! The set includes both a colored version and a black-and-white version for your child to color in, making it a customizable and engaging learning experience. For a full walkthrough, check out the project instructions in this blog post.
Hands-on learning comes to life as kids rotate the weather wheel daily, helping them connect weather patterns to new vocabulary. This activity promotes language acquisition, observation skills, and fine motor development, all while fostering a sense of routine and engagement. Whether at home or in the classroom, it’s a great way to introduce both weather concepts and Mandarin Chinese.
