Help Your Child Learn Math

As our children go about their daily lives exploring and discovering things around them, they are exposed to the world of mathematics. And since mathematics has become increasingly important in this technological age, it is even more important for our children to learn math at home, as well as in school.

Helping Your Child Learn Math is for parents of children in kindergarten through fifth grade. It includes a variety of activities that will help children learn and apply mathematical concepts such as geometry, algebra, measurement, statistics, and probability in a useful and fun way. All of the activities in this book relate math to everyday life and complement many of the math lessons that children are learning. These fun activities use materials that are easy to find. They can be done in the home, at the grocery store, while traveling, or just for the fun of it. Introduction
