Sums in Space - Addition and Subtraction Math Games for Kids 5-7

This a fun game that will help not only kids, but adults stay sharp with math. There’s a die with addition or subtraction so you never know what the equation will be. Colorful board with easy to follow rules. There are different variations you can try if you want to switch it up or make it more difficult. I really like it because it only takes 30 mins to play a game but you could have solve 10-15 math problems in that time. It really would be perfect in school or afterschool programs. A lot of fun for everyone

Our 6 year-old loves Space and was excited to play this game. It's very easy to get the hang of, the instructions are clear and simple, and the quality of the materials is excellent. The game is rather quick to play; the box says 15 to 25 minutes and that is definitely accurate. It's great for a child that has difficulty staying focused for too long. The board is a bit busy (in a good way, it's beautifully illustrated) and rolling often gets a little chaotic with any game so we used the box lid to roll in, made it much easier to see and organize the dice. I created a little chart about even and odd numbers on the box insert to keep with the game since he hadn't learned about those yet; might be nice to add something like that to the game. Overall it was fun to play and definitely helped him with practicing his addition and subtraction. We enjoyed playing with the 0 blastoff countdown timer. Very good educational game!

We've had so much fun playing this game! As an educational therapist, making learning enjoyable is a key part of my role. Traditional worksheets and repetitive math exercises can become quite daunting for students, especially since they encounter similar tasks all day at school. That's why I love incorporating more engaging and enriching activities into my sessions. My clients, the kiddos, absolutely adore this game, and we all have a blast playing it together. It's not only fun for the children but also for adults, and the two different ways to play offer great variety. The excitement of trying to reach the rocket ship before time runs out adds an extra layer of suspense. Thank you for creating such a fantastic game!

I’m subtracting a star because the art - though designed by a woman - is not gender inclusive. I took a sharpie and gave the darker haired of the two children a flick of eyelashes and some extra curls. Aside from that, this game is fantastic! My family are board game fanatics and my husband and I were both impressed and pleased by the clever way the game play balanced out through the use of the black hole you hit toward the end. It slows turn movement enough to allow players who’ve fallen behind to catch up, making the outcome much more exciting.

Great math game for a kiddo who is struggling with math. Makes it fun and easy!

This was such a good game to make learning fun! Not a ton of pieces to get lost either which is nice. Seemed to be made well and I would buy again.

What’s more fun than racing the rocket ship to blast of!?! This game can be played cooperatively or racing each other. Simple game but so much math learning!! The added fun of being able to take your buddy with you as you pass and having a space hole to navigate adds to the enjoyment of the game. Even though our 4 year old couldn’t add to 20 she can count that far so she was able to play too! Even and Odd numbers are also practised! So much learning in a really fun game! Highly recommend!

Bought this for the grandkids and game is good for math skills. We altered some of the rules for our 5 year old but his 8 year old sister could follow the rules. It was fun for both of them as they were able to answer the equations and be successful.
