    In today's episode of Mandarin Mama Chitchat, we have an exciting interview with Mengsha, a mother, scientist, podcaster, and language enthusiast. Mengsha's passion for Mandarin language and literacy led her to start a blog and podcast. In her podcast, she and her husband read stories from the book "Journey to the West."

She is fascinated by the history of Chinese culture and is a dedicated bookworm. Wanting to share her love for reading with others who are interested in Chinese culture but may not be able to read Chinese characters, Mengsha and her husband embarked on this project. They read "Journey to the West" and engage in discussions about it. Our interview with Mengsha was filled with laughter and she shared fascinating facts about Chinese language and literature.

Bilingual Motherhood United!

I absolutely love that these two Taiwanese moms are chatting about raising bilingual kids, a topic near and dear to my heart! As a bilingual mom myself, it can feel lonely to not have the support and understanding of my not-so-diverse school. This podcast reinforces my will to raise my kids bilingually, and gives great tips on how!
