10 Kid Shows with Animals Available in Mandarin on Netflix
One of the best ways to immerse your child in learning a new language is through TV shows! Netflix offers a variety of audio dubs and subtitles, one of which is Mandarin Chinese. You can simply switch your audio to select a specific language and enjoy watching these shows while letting your kids learn Chinese basics!
Not all movies are available in Mandarin, so I manually checked each show to give you this list! I hope you enjoy this!
How to switch your audio and change your subtitles on Netflix:
- Start the movie you want to watch.
- In the first few seconds of the video, click on Audio & Subtitles on the bottom of the screen.
- Select ‘Mandarin’ for audio.
- Select your caption language (optional). I like to choose English so that I can learn along with the audio.
