Thank you for sharing about Math for Love! I'm actively looking for something that feels like the way the BBC's Numberblocks handles math. We use Right Start Math some, which I both love and hate. I can't wait to check out the sample curriculum. The games look fantastic!

Numberblocks is so good! I think Math for Love’s approach is similarly playful. Tiny Polka Dot might be a good place to start. I like the way the games guide you to make your own discoveries rather than just being told things which may or may not actually land with the child. Good luck with the search!

Thanks for sharing about this resource! It looks amazing, and I’m excited to explore their curriculum. I sure wish the multiplication game was around when I was leaning my times tables! My son is just 1.5, but I’m tempted to start buying the games anyway haha. At the very least, he’ll be ready for Tiny Polka Dot in a year or so.

Thank you, Catherine! Can't wait to apply this towards more products from this company before March-- Tiny Polka Dot really has given me new hope and life as I work on math with my 4, 6 and 7 year olds. And the videos on the Math for Love website have really helped demystify how to use their cards. I'm looking into Multiplication by Heart. I'll let you know what I decide and how it goes. Thanks again!

We got Multiplication By Heart as per your recommendation and it has been great! My daughter actually WANTS to do it - which I'm grateful for! Thanks for letting us know about it.

I bought Tiny Polka Dot for my little one's stocking after I read about it here last year. Such a lovely resource to have. We have enjoyed playing with it as a family in the long evenings. I'll definitely look into buying some of the others come February (think I might join you in the No Buy January.)
