Chinese Culture - Which Products to Choose?

Childbook teaches about the Chinese Language and Culture. So if I wanted to create a section on culture which products should I choose?

Here is two Definitions of Culture from M-W the customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits of a racial, religious, or social group; also : the characteristic features of everyday existence.

So culture is not Chinese History, but ways of thinking. So I can think of four items right now.
Good Luck Life: The Essential Guide To Chinese American Celebrations And Culture (great book!).
Exploring Chinatown: A Children's Guide to Chinese Culture
Let's Go To School with Mei Mei 5

Follow Jade - Let's Visit Chinese Kindergarten in DVD
Follow Jade! Learn Chinese: Let's Go to Market in China DVD

I did cheat a bit on the first two items, since I did a search on culture and was curious what came back. There is also a nice book on Chinese Poetry, A Thousand Peaks: Poems from China.

Time for a new section which I just created Chinese Culture Books and DVD's. It will be interesting to see which items sell. Personally, I like the Let's Go To School with Mei Mei 5 a lot because of the comparison I can do to US schools and the book is a great reference and read Good Luck Life: The Essential Guide To Chinese American Celebrations And Culture
