Hi, everyone, this is Miao Miao! From teachkidschinese.com. 大家好 !我是 苗苗,来自 teachkidschinese.com.
I hope you’re having a great day! 希望你今天过得很不错!

We are going to learn 3 more nursery rhymes today.
今天我们将要来学习另外3首不同的儿歌 。

Let’s go ahead and get started!
我们来开始吧!


This first one is called The Big Rooster
第一首名叫大公鸡
I'm going to read it first in Chinese
我先用中文念出来

大公鸡
大公鸡,有礼貌。
见了太阳就问好。
太阳公公眯眯笑,
奖他一顶大红帽。

Now let's explain what it means.
我们现在来解释儿歌的意思


大公鸡,有礼貌。
大公鸡 means the big rooster有礼貌 means is polite
So 大公鸡,有礼貌 means the big rooster is polite

见了太阳就问好。
见了太阳 means sees the sun就问好 means then says hello
So 见了太阳就问好 When he sees the sun he says hello

太阳公公眯眯笑,
太阳 means sun公公 means old man眯眯 means squint your eyes笑 means laugh
So太阳公公眯眯笑 means The old sun squints and laughs

奖他一顶大红帽。
奖他 means reward him 一顶 means one 大红帽 means Big red hat
so 奖他一顶大红帽 means Reward him a big red hat


So, here is the whole nursery rhyme in English:

The Big Rooster
The big rooster is polite
When he sees the sun he says hello
The old sun squints and laughs
Rewards him a big red hat

This nursery rhyme is very funny. The big red hat is actually referring to the red comb on top of the rooster.
这首儿歌很逗. 一顶大红帽事实上指的是公鸡头上的红色鸡冠。
Kids, do you know how does a rooster say hello?
孩子们,你们知不知道公鸡怎么问好?



Yes! So, when a rooster goes (insert kids crowing like a rooster here), he is actually saying hello to the sun!
对!每当一只公鸡叫(insert kids crowing like a rooster here),他真的是在对太阳问好!

Say it with me again in Chinese!
跟我一起用中文再说一遍!

大公鸡
大公鸡,有礼貌。
见了太阳就问好。
太阳公公眯眯笑,
奖他一顶大红帽。

The second nursery rhyme is called “Mama Duck and Baby Ducks”
第二首儿歌名字叫“鸭妈妈和鸭宝宝”

I'm going to read it first in Chinese
我先用中文念出来

鸭妈妈和鸭宝宝
小鸭子,叫嘎嘎,
排成队,跟着妈,
跑到河里来玩耍,
扁扁小嘴捉鱼虾。

Now let's explain what it means.
我们现在来解释儿歌的意思

鸭妈妈和鸭宝宝

So 鸭妈妈和鸭宝宝 means Mama duck and baby ducks

跑到河里来玩耍,

So, here is the whole nursery rhyme in English:

Mama Duck and Baby Ducks

Get in line and follow mama
Run into the river and play
Catch fish and shrimp with their little flat mouths

Wow, doesn’t being a little duck sound fun? 哇塞,做一只小鸭子真好玩儿,对不对?
