Kids Numbers and Math
What's It About?
Kids complete straightforward math problems to strengthen fundamental math skills such as adding, subtracting, comparing, and matching. Kids count objects from images on the screen to solve problems or use the numbers in traditional math problem format. A wide range of settings options allows parents to customize the games.
Is It Any Good?
For preschoolers and early elementary school kids who already know a bit of basic math, KIDS NUMBERS AND MATH can help reinforce those skills in fun ways with colorful games and encouraging voice-over instructions. For toddlers or preschoolers just learning about numbers and counting, you may need to guide them through the basics presented here a few times. Enabling the shake effects changes the games up with very little shake and without much warning, which may be confusing and frustrating for some kids.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Set up addition and subtraction problems using real-life objects and write out number cards to help kids practice math off-line in the same way as in the app.
Turn off the "shake" effects if they're disruptive to your kid's gameplay.
