Having Great Time at UKFCS TTC

During the Easter Break, we were exhibit at ukfcs teacher's training conference. It was at university of reading, which is just an hour drive from London. This is the 3rd year we were exibiting there and also is the best time to interact with teachers and get them to view our lastest products. It was really good talking to teachers. This year's exhibition, stephanie couldn't come along, therefore I brought along my friend, Kim. She has been to a few bookfairs with me previously, so she is quite "experienced" now! As I'm really lousy in counting money, Kim the accountant has no doubt the best candidate to bring along! :)

This year, our core product is a set of comprehensive classroom activities books titled - Chinese Treasure Chest vol 1 & 2. As you can guess from the words - "Treasure Chest", the 900+ pages of books are full of creative activities sheets to use in the classroom/playgroup. This set of books just become me and my daughter's favorite (apart from My First Chinese Words from BetterChinese).

The teachers weren't there all the time, they only have time to browse when there is a coffee break. Many teachers gave us positive feedback about Chinese Treasure Chests and we are very happy to get some preorders as well!!:) A school who decided not to purchase, said it is because the books are too comprehensive and they just couldn't use all the activities sheets inside. They suggest it will be very useful for mainstream school. Well, I am pretty happy with the remark.

The bookfair went well and thank you those who help to put a smile on our face!! :) We are hoping in return, our products will put a smile on the children's faces too! :)

Blog that is long due....

Have been thinking of writing blogs for ages, but never really sit down and do it! When I'm in front of the computer, I'll either work on the website, emailing, browsing and shopping for children stuffs or get nosy on facebook! Another word, just too much of distractions!

Well, enough of those lazy excuses...For those who just get to know xihaha, we are an online chinese children bookshop in uk who run by two ladies, myself and stephanie. We are just two very down to earth persons, thinking of doing something exciting together. All the children products in xihaha are choosen carefully with the thought of the non-native speaking children's liking. We hope that all the English/Mandarin bilingual children will feel that it is fun to learn Chinese and it is not that scary afterall! :)
