📖 STORY TIME...

I have always loved math. In fact, I have a very strong memory of loving a math game we played in Grade 5. I can't remember the name of it but I think it was called Math Minute. We each had a half sheet of paper with a race car drawn in the middle surrounded by a race track and the numbers 1-12 in each square of the race track. Our teacher would write a number on the board and this was the number we were to multiple each race track square by. We had one minute to work through our race track but the faster you completed it the better. As soon as you were done you would stand up to "win" the race. I loved the game and the thrill of trying to be the first one standing!

That game inspired the Math Wheel. This wheel has the numbers 1-12 engraved on it and includes answer discs with all the numbers you need to work through your multiplication table up to 12x12. It also includes addition and substraction symbols to practice early addition and subtraction.

It's one of my favourite products since it has such a strong childhood connection.
