I’m excited to share with you that we just released our latest family engagement product – Dealin’ Digits. Dealin’ Digits are fun and engaging card games that focus on reinforcing important number skills in the elementary grades.

According to research by LeFevre et al*, children’s mathematical skills in Kindergarten, First, and Second Grade were shown to be correlated with the frequency in which they were involved in home activities such as cooking, and playing board and card games.

The nice thing about card games is that everybody loves to play them. That’s why they’re a great way to get in some extra skill practice while at the same time having fun! Here’s what one second grade teacher said about her recent order:

I got my box of goodies! OH MY GOSH, those games look so fun. I’ll be sending these home for winter break fun!

As with all of our Take-Home products, these card games come individually packaged making it super easy to hand out to students at your Family Math Night event, pop in backpacks as fun homework, or send home with parents at conference time.
