Middlebury Language Center
Mini Ni Hao Camp
Four one week mini-camps for kids ages 3-5. Learning Chinese can seem daunting but children are amazing sponges when it comes to language acquisition. What better way to start a language than to immerse them at an early age! Learn Mandarin Chinese through games, stories, crafts, songs and other outdoor activities. Each camp is individual and does not require previous knowledge of Chinese language.
