From Library Journal
Designed to help children avoid "mathophobia," this book contains practical advice for parents. Brief, cursory, introductory chapters, often with too little explanation, treat motivation, instructional aids, math drills, problem solving, computers,etc. The majority of the book is devoted to activities to help parents teach sets, counting, computations, fractions, decimals, percent, and geometry. More challenging activities are labeled throughout. While the variety of learning activities provided is commendable, parents would do as well to borrow a school math text. Those truly interested in helping their child enjoy math will find Martin Hughes's Children and Number (LJ 8/86) more useful. Joanne Troutner, Lib.
