If you like using math worksheets, you'll see our guide to the top three.

For us, the secret of success with homeschool math has definitely been to do lots of practical activities with the kids.

That includes trying out lots of fun number activities.

Fun Math Activities

One of the best ways of making math fun is by playing board and card games.

It's amazing how much learning goes on when you're sitting round playing a game!

I asked 2,000 homeschoolers from my Courageous Homeschooling Facebook group to give you their top recommendations for math games.

Board and card games are brilliant for sneaking in all sorts of math learning without anyone noticing. They also allow for repetition and re-inforcement of number skills.

That repetition is especially useful when it comes to learning the math times tables.

I've brought together lots of different activities and ideas to help your child gain mastery of multiplication, including a free e-book.

You can also get a free printable so you can work out how to use your fingers to do the nine times table!

There can be few more traumatic experiences for some kids than answering worksheets on fractions; I can remember the awful feeling of sheer dread even now.

See how we've used homeschooling games, candy bars and even a child's watch to bring parts to life.

We've used a similar approach with homeschooling geometry activities. When it comes to math worksheets, 3-dimensional objects rely on your child having a good understanding of shapes. So why not have some fun and try making some?

• You'll find lots more ideas for all sorts of homeschooling Elementary Math. Number worksheets for kids are only fun when your child has done lots of other homeschooling projects which make figures easy to understand. 

• Free computer games and software can make numbers easy.  The problem is in trying to find the right website! Come and see our homeschooling favorite for Kids Online Math. Got a website your kids love? Tell us your best Online Math Games For Kids.
