Math Makers

A lot or a little?

Parents need to know that Math Makers uses logic puzzles to abstractly explore math concepts such as place value, addition, and multiplication. Though there's some basic visual guidance for what kids need to do to play, there's no verbal instruction for the game or explanation of the underlying math concepts. This may leave some kids feeling quite frustrated. Parents may need to be on hand to help kids through when they struggle. To start playing, parents need to create account using an email address. With each account, parents can create individual player profiles for up to three kids. There are very few words throughout the app, but parents can choose to set Math Makers to one of 16 languages. This version also includes the puzzle set from Slice Fractions and Slice Fractions 2, two previous releases from the same developer that use a similar gamified set up to teach fractions. After a 7-day free trial, parents need to pay for a subscription to continue accessing the games. The developer claims that they frequently release new content. Read the developer's privacy policy for details on how your (or your kids') information is collected, used, and shared and any choices you may have in the matter, and note that privacy policies and terms of service frequently change.
