| Summary: | Age Range: 5-12 (Grades K-7) You are going to love this website! It offers all kinds of free printable math games, board games, puzzles, and toys. The idea (as explained at the site) is that, "children love to play, and they learn through playing." |

| Description: | You'll be able to make many of the games with just your printer, and others may require a few items you probably have around the house - like a deck of playing cards or some dice. They all come with an explanation of why these games help kids learn more in an hour of play than they possibly could in a whole day of drills. When you get to the site you'll see an introduction. Use the menu on the left side of the page to find math games for every grade level from K-7, plus the latest and most popular games on the site. You can even subscribe to the free newsletter to get occasional mailings about new games and resources added to the site. Don't miss the "Home School Resources" that provides: *Games - These are ideal for the home environment and include printable games, card games, and interactive online games. *Worksheets - Get free addition, subtraction, and times tables worksheets. *Printable Manipulatives - Print out paper tiles and blocks to help teach kids how to add and subtract numbers of more than one digit and for helping understand the concepts of carrying and borrowing. *An Advent Calendar - This colorful, printable calendar helps teach younger kids counting skills - and is perfect during the Christmas holidays. *Angle Geometry Quiz - Test your knowledge of interior angles of triangles and quadrilaterals, angles near parallel lines, lines meeting at a point and others. You'll also find Fraction Games, a Dot Joining Game (with many hidden mathematical formula to discover), Magic Square Puzzle Worksheets, a Times Table Board Game, Math Mazes, and much, much more! Have fun! |
