5 DIY Games to Practice Addition | Fun Math for Children

Math is part of the STEAM system - Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics! It is essential to teach all five of them. And the best way to engage with children is to turn lessons into a game. Leave a comment down below which part of STEAM your children are the most excited about!

⭕️ Math can be a hands-on activity! When we make it more tactile, it makes it easier for kids to learn. Filling up rubber gloves with rice, we make a new set of hands that the kids can count on. This is a great way to introduce addition and counting because the answer is visual. It’s also great for subtraction!

⭕️ Pin it Down. This addition game is a great start to doing sums in the head. All the answers are right there- you just have to do the work to find the right one! It’s really satisfying when you pin the equation to the right answer.

⭕️ Math Garage. I love this addition game because it shows how many different answers there can be to the same question. This is great for kids that are active and love to solve puzzles, or just love cars!

⭕️ Is it time to pick apples yet? This addition activity shows a whole math formula altogether. The apples on our math tree also help count, so you can double-check the answer you came up with. This one is also great for getting fast sums.

⭕️ The Addition Machine. Do you like my addition machine? I find because you can write your own numbers, this one is the most versatile of the bunch.
