Singapore-based edutainment company Yumcha Studios is offering Singaporeans and Malaysians 6 months’ FREE access to their highly-regarded Dim Sum Warriors bilingual app, originally priced at $9/month. Especially useful for families trying to encourage their children to read more in Chinese.
Yumcha Studios CEO Dr. Woo Yen Yen says that they made the decision when the new Covid restrictions were imposed on Singapore and Malaysia.
“We know how hard it is to keep kids occupied and positive when they’re stuck at home all the time. So we thought that for this difficult period, we’d make 6 months of our App free, because kids really need high quality content that educates as well as entertains.” As many would say in Singapore and Malaysia, she adds, “Boh pian doesn’t have to mean sian,” i.e., having no choice doesn’t necessarily mean having to be bored.

The Dim Sum Warriors App helps kids improve both Chinese and English through hilarious stories, adorable characters, games and reading evaluation tech that provides motivation and feedback on fluency and pronunciation.
“Kids will be learning a lot,” says creator Dr. Woo, a former tenured professor in the field of education who’s also an award-winning filmmaker. “But it won’t feel like drudgery. Because learning is better when you’re laughing.”
The offer will run until 31 May 2021 and can be found at
