What Are Some Good Computer Games That Teach Young Children Math?

Math Games Add comments

My 6 year old cousin is falling FAR behind in his schooling. But he loves games!

I want to find some educational games for him so that he thinks he is playing a game, but is actually learning.

Reading and Math are critical

He can go online to http://www.funbrain.com and play several fun math games for free.

    I use http://www.smart-estore.com and all the software is about $.99 and you pay shipping. Totaling around $5.00 for a new game. I can buy 4 different games for less that 1 at wal-mart/target and if my daughter hates them, or completes the entire game in no time I don't feel so bad. I recently got I Love Math! and Jump Start Math for 2nd graders and she loves them. Good Luck!

    Okay. Buy "Cluefinders" by the Learning Company. It's a really good CD-ROM. And they have science, math, critical reading, and logic all mixed together. And if he ever goes on Neopets.com, then he can go to a game called, "Math's Nightmare". (math problems such as simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems) Or "Eliv Thade" (unscramble words)

    Here is another website to use that your cousin can use for years. It is internet4classrooms.com/grade_level_help.htm. This website supplies anyone with interactive website based on what you are looking for. I have used it many times with my students and will continue to use it as long as I teach. If you have any other concerns, feel free to contact me. I also use funbrain.com and aplusmath.com for math games.

    Try the DK series CDs … i.e Dorling Kindersley CDs … They are good. I have seen it work on both my kids.

    We got the JumpStart Pre-School, JumpStart Kindergarten, and JumpStart First grade PC games for our son and they worked wonders with both math and reading. We found them at Wal Mart and they were only $9.99 each.
