Have Sum Fun

Image of 1-2-3 cartoon characters

The new Have Sum Fun leaflet contains lots of games you can play with your children to help them develop an interest and love of numbers. As a parent or carer you can help your children develop their mathematics and number skills by playing these games with them.

The suggested games, for children aged 3-8, focus on learning through play and are based on real-life contexts. They have been designed with fun in mind, while supporting your children in practising their number skills. A minimum of preparation is required by parents and carers. All you need is some time and enthusiasm.

You can adapt the games to your own situation and play the ones your children enjoy the most.
