Chinese Playtime teaches Mandarin to young children.

It saw a gap for language learning that is engaging, high quality and made for little ones.

The short version

NOIZE built Chinese Playtime a brand that combines playful learning with cultural respect. The identity is bright, child-friendly and easy to recognise, while avoiding stereotypes. It speaks to children and their parents.

The brief

Children's brands have two audiences: kids, who need to enjoy it, and parents, who need to trust it. Chinese Playtime had to win both.

The approach

01Playful learning

The strategy is built around how young children learn.

02Culture with care

Respectful, not stereotypical.

03Two audiences

Fun for kids, credible for parents.
