Product Description

From the Manufacturer

With Millie's Math House, students build a foundation of fundamental math concepts and thinking skills. Through activities that feel like play, students explore numbers, shapes, sizes, quantities, patterns, sequencing, and new activities addressing measurement concepts and number sentences.

Features:

• Add and Subtract: Place the same number of objects on your stage as Dorothy has on hers! How many is that? You'll have to count, add, and subtract to find out!
• Compare and Match Sizes: Little, Middle, and Big need shoes! Help them try on boots, high-tops, sandals, and slippers as you explore the concept of size.
• See and Hear Patterns: Create, recognize, and complete patterns with Bing and Boing, the bouncing pals. As they hop on a picture, it makes a wacky sound. Record your own sounds for even more fun!
• Explore Shapes: Use blueprints--or your own creativity--and learn about geometric shapes as you build a mouse house. Print and color your house, too!
• Learn to Count: little critters pop up and count off when you select a number from 0 to 30 in the Number Machine.
• Encourage Creativity: learn about numbers and quantity as you place from 1 to 10 rolling eyes, wagging tails, wiggling antennae, and other moving parts on a bug!
• Develop Problem-Solving Skills: decorate cookies with 0 to 20 jellybeans in the Cookie Factory--and discover the sequence of events required to make a tasty treat for Harley, the horse.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent activity for pre-schoolers, November 11, 2007

A mom in medicine - See all my reviews

We bought this CD from a school book fair. It's OK. The activities are very, very simple, and range from number and shape recognition to single-digit addition. It's good for introducing kids to using a mouse and to numbers, but my 4-year old ran through the depth and breadth of the game in about 3 months (using it maybe once a week) and became bored by it.

This review is from: Millie's Math House (CD-ROM)

I purchased Mille's Math House for my four year old daughter.

She is able to navigate to and from all of the activities with no supervision. She enjoys all of the games but I would have to say she probably like making the crazy looking bugs the most!

Awesome product at such a reasonable price!

This game pack is a great value. Perfect for preschool age children. These are the same games that many preschools have in their classrooms. My 3 yr old absolutely loves playing these games. Very educational.
