If your Children are like my Children they learn and love math through fun, visual, hands-on games and lessons.
Children fall in love with Zillio at first sight. The large colorful rotating structure is not only beautiful and exciting, but it is a powerful model of math based on two critical math concepts: times tables and number lines.
Combined, these concepts create the foundation for 10 essential skills to help children learn, use, and understand the math necessary to grow and succeed. And nothing is more rewarding than helping them along the way.
The Zillio math playgrounds (either the 3D Mountains or the 2D game board) set the stage. They combine visual, tactile, and kinesthetic elements to meet the learning styles of most children.
The educational games and lessons are a perfect balance of fun and powerful learning. Progressively challenging activities are based on standards for grades Pre- K through 6+ including counting, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, number lines, ratios, equivalency and algebra. It’s the learning that makes playing math really fun for everyone.
Find out why everyone falls in love with Zillio. Whether you are a parent looking for educational toys and games for you and your family to enjoy together, or an educator looking for a powerful math manipulative to help you provide instruction in a classroom environment and/or strategic one-on-one supplemental instruction, you’ll find what you need: educational games, standards based lessons and tutorials to help you get started today.
Mini Mountain
