Ni Hao Kai-Lan The Dragon Dance

Based on Ni Hao, Kai-lan, the new animated series from Nickelodeon (and inspired by the best-selling book Caterpillar Spring, Butterfly Summer), The Dragon Dance features a colorful “covered slinky” that serves as the body of a dragon, a traditional symbol in Chinese festivities. The two-color “dragon” stretches and winds through the pages of the book as Kai-lan and her lovable animal friends join the dragon in a colorful parade and dance. In addition to the fun, there are also important little lessons to help preschoolers identify their feelings, learn Chinese words, manage their emotions, and understand the world around them.
