"We want kids to feel about math the way they feel about dessert after dinner." --Laura Overdeck, Time magazine
Our mission: to make math a fun part of kids' everyday lives. When is the last time you gave your child a math problem just for fun? Yesterday? Last year? Maybe never? We all know it's wonderful to read bedtime stories to kids, but the question remains--what about doing math? Math has a negative association in our culture and many Americans are uncomfortable and even fearful of math and numbers. But Bedtime Math is here to change all that.
In Bedtime Math 3, math and fun facts combine for one wacky and wild adventure! Now kids can discover the truth behind all their favorite things: marshmallows, Coca-Cola, astronaut ice cream, and more! These fun, mischief-making math problems aren't just kid-friendly, but actually, kid-appealing. With over 100 math problems on a variety of topics, kids will find math isn't just fun--it can be found everywhere! And with three different levels of challenge (Wee ones, Little kids, and Big kids), plus a Bonus question, there's something for everyone. We can make numbers fun--and change the world--one Bedtime Math problem at a time.

Examples were quite good. Loved the "levels" of insights to be drawn from each example, for different age groups. They picked examples that were not standard, unrealistic stories--real world. And they demanded thought. Thoroughly enjoyed the book and the rest of series, used it with grandkids and ordered more for my son to share with his kids Highly recommend this series of books.
