Chinese Made Easy as a Textbook

A Chinese Teacher I am working with for Chinese Made Easy Textbooks has found that a combination of Chinese Made Easy Level 1 and Chinese Made Easy for Kids Level 1 is working best for her class. She wishes the Chinese Made Easy for Kids has the for kids removed, since it is for a Middle School Chinese Class. She finds the Chinese Made Easy for Kids is better for activities and speaking that are fun (and learning Chinese should be fun), and the Chinese Made Easy is better for the class work.
