Math for the Fun of It
Helping Your Child Learn Math

During summer vacations, on rainy days, while waiting at the doctor's office, or on a stroll through the neighborhood, learning never ends. Your children can explore some fascinating mathematical possibilities in the world around them every day. For instance, math can be found outdoors in nature: look for symmetry in leaves; count the number, sizes, and kinds of trees on your street; and look at the various shapes and patterns of blooming flowers. Children will be learning math and enjoying it too! The activities in this section can be done anytime and anywhere.
