The Essential Maths Kit. Kids' Mag is deliberately designed to introduce children to the world of mathematics beyond the classroom. It presents children with the opportunity to discover new aspects of mathematics that might capture their interest. It also caters for children who love making things - doing mathematics with their hands and being creative. Above all - Kids Mag is meant to be fun, not 'work'.
All children enjoy a joke, and many able children particularly like a pun or a 'play on words'.
If it's long - print it off and read it away from the computer when you have time to sit down together. Younger children will need help following the instructions and managing some fiddly bits. Perhaps you could work on one each and help each other. Encourage your child to go beyond the basic idea presented and experiment with variations in the design and materials.
