Mega Math Maze is a cool book, but you have to read the directions in order to understand how to use it. Once you do, the book becomes a fun way to practice multiplication and division. A section at the end offers kids “The Secrets of the Times Tables Grid;” square numbers; special signs; and times tables tricks.
Mega Math Maze is a good option for kids who struggle with math facts or “hate” math. It’s also a fun way to reinforce concepts.
