How to teach my child mandarin?

Im chinese, my husband belongs to another race. My 2 yr old Mother Tongue is Mandarin. Whenever I ask her questions or speak to her in Mandarin she will just ignore me. How can I teach her to make her get more interested? She responds in English only. #pleasehelp #1stimemom #firstbaby #advicepls

I'm chinese but never speak Mandarin with my kids, we speak Cantonese and English at home. i send my boy to Childcare when he's 2 years old, he can converse well in Mandarin with his laosi after 3months. not to worry, children can pick up language very fast, talk to her more
