Math Games-Searching for a Good Time
When you think of math games for your kids, you don't think of something fun. Well, maybe you do if you're me, but I consider math games to be fun when they involve jellybeans or other snackworthy props. Obviously, I'm not very conventional when it comes to the studying of math. In fact, not many parents realize the emphasis that should be placed on children's math skills because we grew up in a time when it was almost ok to not like math or to not excel in the subject. But our kids are living in a different world, and much to my dismay, jellybeans-not to mention gummy worms, Skittles, Corn Nuts or measurable lengths of Red Vines-won't cut it for an out-of-the-classroom math lesson anymore.

Fortunately for people like myself who are slightly uncomfortable with the subject of math, some online sites have developed and host free math games that are challenging, exciting, fun and age-appropriate for this generation of young folks. Math games should never take the place of homework assignments or projects, but if you do find kid and parent-approved games from a trustworthy site, there's nothing wrong with suggesting a round or two to your child before dinner or even during commercial breaks. Keeping your child's mind primed for new material is the key to maintaining a healthy level of educational joy and motivation.

Math Search, a game that involves a series of math skills including multiplication, division, subtraction and addition,and several combinations of all four things-is one example of an excellent game that encourages math skills, spatial reasoning skills, and logic skills and still manages to stay competitive and fun. Math Search requires a student to complete a math problem (they increase in difficulty as the program progresses) and then find the answer from a Word Search-like grid of numbers. Kids work while a time counts up the seconds or minutes, so they feel a little passive pressure to complete the exercise in a certain amount of time, though no penalty is given for the more methodic mathematician. Working against a clock energizes students and keeps this math game ahead of others by allowing students to play almost competitively against each other or just themselves and their own best scores.

Introduce a new math game or even a word game or a logic game as long as it remains educational to your student once every week or so to encourage them to become familiar with a number of activities. Once your child finds favorites, make note. There are plenty of online resources to offer your child games like the ones that he or she takes to with the most excitement. Search for math games, or just search for math answers in the game Math Search. Either way, your child's mind will be a lot more primed and lot less sugar-free if you take advantage of the new games available for extra math help (which just means more jellybeans for you.)
