Xiao Bao performed on Asia Uncut, one of Asia's largest English-language talk shows, in
Shanghai on January 28, 2010.
Xiao Bao was born prematurely (早产) and weighed just a little more than 1 kg at birth.
Doctors suggested that his mom should play music for him and encourage him to do more exercise.
When Xiao Bao was about one year old, his mom found he liked moving his body to music, even
to the songs of mobile phones. When Xiao Bao was two years old, his mom took him to the Baby
Show, a TV program in Hebei Province where they lived. Xiao Bao performed quite well. The
choreographer (舞蹈教练) advised his mom to take him to take dancing courses (课程). So,
the mom quit her job and took Xiao Bao to a dancing class in Beijing. Xiao Bao learned street
dance there. He later took part in the program "6+1" on July 19, 2009 and became a star.
"I took him to the dancing school and shows," his mom said. "When you see him dancing, you
will find how happy he is.
"But Xiao Bao's mom knows that he now isn't living a normal life as a child. "Every day, there
are many adults telling him how smart he is. He has no friends of his own age." She is taking Xiao
Bao to a kindergarten (幼儿园) soon and the dancing courses will go on, because they make him
really happy.
