Pyramath - TOS Review

Lessen the boredom by multiplying the fun.

Grab a game and their attention is won!

I'm so glad that I now have an opportunity to share this product review with you!
We absolutely LOVE playing various math games here, especially easy-to-carry-anywhere card games.
Please allow me to introduce you to Pyramath ™ by I-See-Cards ™.

Pyramath™ is a seemingly simple pack of cards with numerous possibilities. These cards display the four basic math symbols on one side (ie: +, -, x and ÷ ). The other side will display a numeral between the numbers 0 - 9, alongs with English, Spanish, Chinese, Roman and Arabic translations.

The basic game is set out in a very simple fashion: place 5 or 7 cards alongside each other for the first line. To then place down another card, you must perform an operation (again +, -, x or ÷). Eg: if I had the cards '7' and '2', I could place the card '9' between them to begin building the pyramid, stating that '7 + 2 = 9'.

Mariposa was the most keen to start playing this game, even though she doesn't yet know all of her multiplication facts. We started with simple addition and subtraction, then moved on with the help of the times table chart until she was quite successful at playing the basic solitaire game. Maestro also enjoyed the challenge and worked up to play a game of 'war'. BOTH of the children have improved their automatic math skills in the process of using this game, and have enjoyed doing so throughout the process. It's a game that can cater children from K through to adult.

Games can also be played online. Head on over to the Pyramath™ game page to select which game you'd like to try (5 card or 7 card). Warning, though ... it IS addictive!!

We received these cards along with an instructional flyer and a 28 page booklet entitled "Dr. Ron's Succeeding in Mathematics with Games". You can view this information on the I-See-Cards™ website, or go here for the Pyramath™ instructions in pdf format. Or, you may like to view the instructional video which also offers game variations. The 28 page booklet can also be downloaded here; it gives an overview of some game possibilities per pack of cards, including that of the fractions game Fractazmic™, and Prime Bomb™.

Pyramath™ cards can be purchased for $6.95US for the regular pack.
