This is a beginners book of addition, subtraction and skip counting and it can be used for all ages. There are some activities designed to be enjoyed together - with a parent or older sibling. Many activities can be enjoyed without any help from grown-ups. We use Art & Logic to teach math - it's more like a game book than a workbook. This book is not designed for a specific age or grade level, it is for children who have not mastered their addition and subtraction skills. Many older children who have had trouble with memorization can use this book to overcome problems with learning math facts. This book can also be used at a 1st math book for children who can count to 50 and know how to write numbers. The logic games in this book ensure that the activities will be interesting for older children, but the games are still simple enough to be used with little children - with a little help from a parent. In this little book we call our math problems "Math Mysteries", so kids don't grow up thinking that math is a problem to be avoided but a mystery to be solved. This little book is a lot of fun because your child will even get the chance to be CREATIVE with math and numbers! there are some pages where the child is asked to create a math problem for someone older - like mom, dad, or a big brother or sister! Who knew math could be so much fun. This book is designed to be enjoyed together. So get some colored pencils or gel pens and help your child color the cute little characters. If your child struggles with any of the "Math Mysteries" you should say "It might be hard, but it looks like FUN! can I try it?" If the child says "Yes" then you can take a turn solving some Math Mysteries - this is how you can be an example to your child of how to do math, and how to have a good attitude towards learning and solving problems...
