Be careful what you purchase when buying Chinese materials for home use.
There is Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese. Make sure you know what you are buying!
A word from Zhining...
It is important for parents to know that at this stage of our student learning Chinese, we are not ready to introduce Traditional Chinese yet. If we show them that there are two forms for one character it will be very confusing.
