Bedtime Math
Parents know to read to their kids at night, but what about math? Choose the Math Problem of the Day, or explore over 400 additional math problems with various zany topics, ranging from electric eels and chocolate chips to roller coasters and flamingos. Each has three levels of challenge ("Wee Ones," "Little Kids," and "Big Kids"), and many also have harder questions ("The Sky's the Limit") for really big kids, grown-ups, and anyone who's feeling brave! As the school year is coming to a close, teachers can share Bedtime Math with parents to keep kids' minds engaged through the summer break!
