Math for LoveMath for Love Tiny Polka Dot

I’m a math specialist, and I have a 4 year old daughter. This games helps her subitize (recognize how many without having to count) quantities to 10. It will also support addition fluency to 5 and 10. When she is too old for it, I’m planning on bringing it to school. I wish every home and every classroom has this. Kids would have a stronger foundation of number sense.There are several different games variations and different levels.I recommend this with anyone with kids in grades PreK-1 or anyone with a child struggling with addition fluency.

This game is great for showing kids all the ways that a number can be what it is. It really helps ingrain what the number MEANS instead of just memorizing how it is usually visualized on cards or worksheets. You can take out the higher numbers in the sets for newer learners to avoid boring or overwhelming them and still play all the different games. As they master the lower numbers you can them gradually add them back in over time. The box comes with instructions and suggestions on a lot of different ways to play with them which is great because every kid is different and some games will obviously be duds to some families and fun for others. It’s also nice to give you some ideas other than just the obvious memory or matching games that I thought of. Cards are decent quality, very colorful and lots of them. Some variations are pretty similar looking to each other but there are plenty of more unique representations as well.

Preschoolers love this game and ask to play almost daily. Can use get r a wide range of age and ability groups.

Love playing this with my 5 yo

This game is a GREAT way to build number sense for kids. It has a ton of variations, is connected to what kids are most likely learning in school, and is well-made. Its simplicity is part of what makes it so good.Play this game with your kids who are 3-6 especially. Help them move from counting all the dots on a card to grouping them and putting numbers together. I was playing with a kindergartner today who saw a card with 6 on it; she said "6" right away because she saw 3 and 3. This is the type of thinking you want your kiddos to start doing--moving from counting to understanding quantity.The game also has adaptations that involve more strategy; there are 16 variations. You could also adapt nearly all of the variations so that they used numbers 0-5 or 0-10 in order to change the level.Cannot say enough good stuff. If you have kids and want them to be flexible mathematicians, buy this!

I have been homeschooling for 25 years and don't often buy new products as my shelves are bursting. I am so glad I purchased this game for my youngest. We use it several days a week in multiple ways. I often throw it in my bag for doctor appointments as well. There are so many different ways to use the game - can't enumerate them here. The company has a website for this game with many suggestions for us.While I think this game is terrific, I only gave four stars for a few reasons.1. I wish the cards were thicker or had laminate surface.2. I wish there was a set of cards with the numbers spelled out in words, in addition to the numeral cards.These two improvements would make this the perfect game, but are by no means deal breakers.Get the game - It's worth it!

My child is 3 and an ELL and this is a perfect way to introduce her to math concepts in a relaxed and simple way. The cards are good quality and have a lot of different ways to play from 3-7+. It's nice to have one high quality game that will last for so long.

We love this game in our homeschool. Even I, the parent, enjoy playing these games with my kids, who are currently doing kindergarten and grade 3 math. They enjoy it too, and even ask for it! I highly recommend this game to supplement your math curriculum in homeschool! It really is great for many ages, 3-8+. There are a variety of games to play, and each have suggested age ranges.
