What is Talking Math with Your Kids?

This website is dedicated to helping parents support their children’s mathematical development. We know we need to read with our children every day, but what should we do for math? Answer: Talk about math with them as we and they encounter numbers and shapes in our everyday lives.

What to do on this site

Now in book form

Talking Math with Your Kids is now available as a Kindle e-book. The book is primarily for parents of children ages 3—9 and contains lots of new, exclusive content. Buying the book will help support the work on the blog. But don’t worry, we’ll keep the blog rolling and free!

We are also excited to announce our first book for children and parents to read together! Which One Doesn’t Belong? is a shapes book for all ages. Details are in the Building a Better Shapes Book postWhich One Doesn’t Belong? is due from Stenhouse in 2016.

I wrote Common Core Math For Parents For Dummies, now available wherever great math-y books are sold, including at Amazon and the new Talking Math with Your Kids store.
