# YCT and CCCC Practice for Kids Free YCT practice PDFs for children: all YCT 1 and YCT 2 words, listening and reading, YCT Speaking, and Taiwan's CCCC Sprouting test, with audio. Source: https://www.saymei.app/resources/downloads/kids-chinese-test-workbooks By Mei Lin The YCT is China's Chinese test for school-age children, with written levels and a speaking test, and the CCCC is Taiwan's children's Chinese certification. These books cover YCT 1 and 2, YCT Speaking Beginner and Intermediate, and CCCC Sprouting, for children of about 6 to 12. YCT 1 covers 80 words and YCT 2 another 70. By the end of a book a child knows that level's words and has tried its question types and a mini practice test.
