Some of this was very challenging for my 3rd grader and that is perfect! She loved the designs and was eager to complete every page.

Daughter loved it!
My homeschooled kiddo requested Halloween-themed school activities and this was absolutely perfect. She has quite a bit of math anxiety but did it all very happily, even multiplication. :)

Why doesn't every school have this?
This concise and colorful little bundle makes multiplication so easy to understand, and grasp at its core. Even my 5 year old, who isn't necessarily some magical math whiz, started the pages with his older sister and it made total sense to him. I've seen tons of other math curriculums fumble their way through introducing multiplication and this is just so much smoother. I'm glad I got these pages for my daughter's summer enrichment because I think when he class starts learning it officially this fall it will make so much more sense, and she'll be ready for the rote-memory element. Definitely recommend as a review or add on supplement :)

Magic Resource
I got this book for my advanced 5 year old because he wanted the challenge of learning something new this summer, but I didn't want to push him into harder math that requires too much handwriting. This was honestly perfect! It was colorful and engaging, and so easy to understand. In fact, I sent the link over to our school's teacher as a possible resource for their whole class because it is so much easier to understand than their curriculum (as evidenced by my 5th grader still struggling with time). Within 3 days my son finished the first half and can tell time by hours. He usually gives up quickly and feels overwhelmed, but the use of white space and small chunks at a time were beyond perfect for him and he wanted to do extra. We'll work on the minutes next, and I think I'll have my 5th grader join us!

Buy this!
This product is an incredible value for the price. I know that the skill of "making ten" is super important and foundational, so it's great to have more fun ways to practice that my kids enjoy.

I love that the lessons don't assume the child knows the fundamentals and go step by step in words and pictures!
