Sum Swamp: Designed for ages 5 and above, Sum Swamp is actually a journey through a swamp which includes
addition and subtraction calculations, based on the numbers resulting from
rolling the dice. 2-4 players can play this at a time. You could take the
Crocodile Short Cut if you’re clever with your numbers, or be caught in an
Endless Loop of sorts.
Sumoku: A sort of a numbered crossword board game ideal for kids
above 8 years, Sumoku begins with the
rolling of a dice, which decides the ‘key number’. Then eight tiles are drawn
by a player, followed by tiles added to the board wherein all rows and columns
must be a sum to a multiple of the ‘key number’ decided in the beginning.
Sounds complicated? Well, it isn’t really, once you start playing. A good form
of math practice for young kids.
Pizza Fraction Fun: Identifying basic fraction denominations can
now be a fun game for kids in the form of Pizza
Fraction Fun. Meant for ages 6-12, it consists of seven different games for
kids that start with the basics and eventually progress up to the concept of
addition and subtraction of fractions, all by building pizzas. A round of
actual pizzas after the game could make it a perfect weekend treat!
