"An interactive story involving math riddles for all the different seasons (including some holidays). The answers to the riddles are located in the back of the book."
"This book is a series of math problems, each with a poem relating to a time of the year. The math problems are all pretty similar. Rather than just count the objects, the author wants your child to group the objects. So there might be three rows of five objects: 5+5+5=15 or two rows of three objects and one row of two objects: 3+3+3=9-1=8
All the problems are simple for an adult, but sometimes I didn't quite know what the author was aiming at, so I always looked at the answer key in the back before doing the problem with my son.
My six year old said he really liked this book, so I gave it four stars. One thing though: It's hard to force your child to count the way the author wants the objects to be counted. Often my son would count them, them I would explain the way using addition.
We didn't do this book straight through. I would sometimes pull it out and we would do one problem and put it away. It took about a month to finish the book."
"Fantastic math concepts book for 2-7 yr olds (adaptable to age). Counting by 1's, 2's, 5's, finding patterns, adding all then subtracting a few, etc. Not to mention the pictures are beautiful! Easton can now count to 20!"
