Learn the multiplication tables 1 to 12 with crates full of apples! A fun math game for kids that turns times tables practice into a step-by-step adventure. How many apples are in two crates with two apples each? Children first see it, then count it, and finally write it as a sum: 2 x 2 = 4. That is how multiplication really starts to make sense. WHAT'S INSIDE • 12 interactive workbooks, one for every times table from 1 to 12 • 108 exercises and tests • 4 levels per table, from understanding to real-life use • Secret tricks on funny instruction cards • Listening exercises with a digital teacher who reads the sums aloud • Puzzles with hidden sums • A timed test to finish every workbook FOUR LEVELS PER TABLE 1. Understand – discover the story behind each table with crates of apples. 2. Memorize – practice the table from 1 to 10 in order, with a fun test where you check your answers afterwards. 3. Mix it up – solve the sums in random order and train your ears with the listening exercise. 4. Real world – use the times tables in fun puzzles from everyday life. WHY IT WORKS Seeing, counting, listening and doing activate different parts of the brain, so the multiplication facts stick. The calm, Montessori-inspired approach lets every child learn at their own pace – at school, at home or while homeschooling.
