Fractions Made Easy for Kids

The Make a Pie math spinner game from EeBoo Company is a simple game that takes the confusion out of fractions, because each pie piece adds to the whole pie. Handling the fractions and seeing how they are portions of the total makes the concept more understandable. Pies of different flavors are divided into halves, thirds, fourths, eighths and sixteenths.

To make a pie you’ll have to spin
and gather slices on your tin. Slices of a certain size will help you to complete your pies.
Spin well and take a piece of pie
from your opponent’s own supply! Finish with most pies complete? You win! Ah, victory can be sweet!

Other games from EeBoo include What Time Is It?, Animal Bingo, Fairy Tale Bingo, Wildlife Matching Game, and I Never Forget a Face Matching Game.

Great ideas for your Christmas list!
