When Noah
was younger, I made sure that I was teaching him basic skills. I think that education is very important and
it is never too early to teach your toddler basic skills like shapes, colors,
letters and numbers. When your child is
in preschool it is a great to teach your child a little more. Most toddlers can count a little, but they
have no idea what the numbers mean. I
believe it is your job to teach them what a number is and how it works. I think that children should be able to do
basic addition by the time they are in Kindergarten. Noah definitely knew some math by the time he
was in Kindergarten. He does second grade math and is in Kindergarten. I
remember when I was learning math it was boring and we didn’t have cool games
and apps to learn from. I remember a game that had basic graphics on the
computer, nothing like today’s graphics and games. It was even in black and
white. I used to imagine the critters in
different colors. I think kids learn
better when it is fun. There are definitely ways for them to learn vs. sitting
at a desk and doing math problems.
I learned
about a new app called GazziliMath. It is an awesome Math app for preschoolers
and even kindergarteners in my opinion. Preschoolers have a really short
attention span so it is extra important to make it fun for them. It’s funny because you can teach a child
something and sometimes they don’t even realize that they are learning. I think with GazziliMath you get that. I really
like that you are helping the animals. GazziliMath tells you what to do, so you
don’t have to read to your child the directions. Just make sure you have the
sound on.

I really
like GazziliMath. It has really cute graphics. I of course had Noah try it out. I didn’t say
it was for 2 to 5 year olds, and he loved it. I think that just because you
already have mastered a skill, you can still practice it. I really like that
the gates are locked and you have to go in order. Your child can’t skip over
levels and have a real understanding for what they are doing. Some children like mine like to skip over things
in order to get to a harder level in games. GazziliMath would be great to use
this summer on long car rides.
You can get GazziliMath for iPad in the iTunes App Store for $1.99
