Cool Free Math Games
I know that many of us have had problems getting our children to learn numbers. I remember how difficult it was for me to learn the multiplication tables by memory. After a long time, I understand the importance of experiential learning.
Mathematics will always exist and are directly related to many of the activities that we carry out in our daily lives. It is up to us as parents to ensure that our boys and girls acquire this knowledge more practically.
Boys and girls learn from the concrete to the abstract. The same thing happens with mathematics. Children will always learn from the easiest to the most complicated. This process allows children to have their neural structures more organized.
The following math activity is inspired by the Montessori methodology since the easiest way to learn mathematical processes is through a dynamic environment that can be modified according to the kids’ needs. These learning environments must allow children to experience independence during the entire process.
The game and the implementation of materials allow all this learning. Through colors, the children can make associations and understand each of these concepts.

This kindergarten math game activity can also be done with young children. If they still can’t recognize the numbers, they can be guided by the colors. Children can use other materials such as blocks, large, medium, and small.
These concepts must be acquired before working with the numbers. The idea is that boys and girls can experientially learn the concepts, which means that knowledge can be tangible. This is achieved through the senses.
