The growing strength of China’s national power and the rapid advancement of the country’s foreign development make the country pay more and more attention to the development of Chinese excellent traditional culture education. Integrating Chinese excellent traditional culture into English teaching in colleges and universities can help to inherit and promote Chinese excellent traditional culture. This paper explores the path of integrating excellent Chinese traditional culture into English teaching in colleges and universities based on the background of informatization and designs a digital English teaching method of traditional culture based on somatosensory interaction with regard to the carrier of traditional culture teaching materials. The method was adopted for English teaching practice, and the effect of traditional culture dissemination was analyzed from three aspects: cognition, attitude, and action. A questionnaire survey on students’ interest and willingness to learn was conducted, and the results showed that students’ interest and willingness to learn traditional culture increased dramatically after digital English teaching of traditional culture based on somatosensory interaction. By comparing the students’ English scores with the pre and post-tests, the average of the student’s total scores before the implementation of the teaching case is 45.631, and the average of the total scores after the implementation of the teaching case is 68.521, and the student’s scores are significantly improved. By analyzing the effect of traditional culture dissemination, the digital English teaching method of traditional culture based on somatosensory interaction designed in this paper can effectively promote and disseminate excellent Chinese traditional culture.
