What Parents Need to Know

About Math Missions

Parents need to know that this educational game entices kids to play math games by rewarding them with fake money to spend on in-game arcade games (which are somewhat educational). A good on-the-go option, but parents who own computers might want to check out the computer games on which this title is based -- they provide a more in-depth math practice.
