Pebbles Chinese is a newly created non-profit Chinese teaching channel, determined to provide high-quality Chinese learning resources to children who want to learn Chinese overseas.

The channel’s main recommendation is a 10-minute Chinese lesson designed for children with no background of Chinese learning and whose native language is not Chinese. It is taught by Ms Pebbles and assisted by Alexa, a native English assistant. All courses are personally designed by Ms Pebbles. The content covers daily conversations in Mandarin and basic Chinese vocabulary.
Each lesson will use funny stories or games as an introduction to enhance the fun of Chinese learning. It is recommended that users start from the first lesson in time order, because the content of the teaching of the videos will gradually deepen and build on the basis of vocabularies previous learned. We hoped that through repeated viewing and interaction, the children's Chinese listening and speaking skills can be significantly improved.

Now we have added two new readings lists: Little Stone Reading Bar and Story of Mia, They are like audio picture book column. Bilingual flash card review list, interesting Chinese culture promotion Chinese festival food, culture list, pinyin teaching list etc to provide more materials for Children who are learning Chinese at different levels.

Ms Pebbles has been teaching Chinese for children for five years. Because of the Epidemic, the local Chinese School went online. Pebbles used her previous media and video production experience cooperating with Yuanimages to create this platform.
