What you can find on this website:

Detailed transcripts including both Chinese characters and pinyin, transcribed manually by me (Please feel free to report a problem by leaving a comment)
Translation of all sentences, along with explanation of vocabulary and grammar points (all written by me word by word, zero machine translation)

Some tips on learning to speak the Chinese language and some posts on Chinese grammar.

Hello, welcome to Learn Chinese with Peppa Pig! I’m Gwen. Born and raised in Beijing, China, I now live with my husband and two kids in Canada. I have a full-time job that has nothing to do with learning a language.
I started watching Peppa Pig with my almost-three-year-old daughter. I always feel guilty for letting her watch shows. With her preschool closed due to COVID-19, we’re watching shows at home more than usual. One day, I came up with the idea that she should watch the Mandarin Chinese dubbed version of Peppa Pig so she could learn my mother tongue and eventually become bilingual. She showed a great interest. Shortly after, I realized I could generalize and improve the method to help people learn Chinese as a second language.
I am drawing a lot from my own language learning experiences. I truly believe you don’t have to start with a grammar book.
I hope you will enjoy learning Chinese with Peppa Pig!

I was very surprised to find that I got used to it really quickly though, and now I’m able to ignore the snorting and enjoy the stories and the language.
