Math Your Kids WANT To Do: Counting & Number Bonds features 21 kid-tested games, offering a variety of challenges for preschool and early-elementary learners. Young children can play with counting and number recognition, while older students explore place value, build number sense, and begin learning the basics of addition.

Chapters include:

• Early Counting: Practice subitizing—recognizing small numbers of items at a glance—and learn the number symbols.
• Childhood Classics: Traditional folk games invite the whole family to enjoy playing with math.
• Number Bonds: Build a mental picture of the relationships between numbers as you begin to explore addition.
• Bigger Numbers: Develop familiarity with two-digit numbers and promote strategic thinking skills.

If you are a parent, these games provide opportunities to enjoy quality time with your children. If you are a classroom teacher, use the games as warm-ups and learning center activities or for a relaxing review day at the end of a term. If you are a tutor or homeschooler, make games a regular feature in your lesson plans to build your students’ mental math skills.

So what are you waiting for? Clear off a table, grab a deck of cards, and let's play some math!
