Maths/Numbers Board Game for 7 yo maths lover?

8 replies

DS is 7 and loves maths and also board games. Can anyone suggest a maths or numbers based board game we can buy for Christmas?

He's Year 2 but higher ability, so has grown out of the Orchard based games.

I came across Prime Climb but its 10+ so likely a bit hard for him at the moment.

Otherwise, have only really come across Rummikub so far, but have never played it?

Thanks

Our 8 year old loves Rummikub!

Our 7 year old loves Rummikub. It involves small about of adding at the star of the game, then it’s more about strategy and number manipulation. It is enjoyable, though, and not dull for adults.

Sounds like that could be a promising option then. Anything to do with numbers, he loves it!

A friend just recommended Skyjo - don't know much about it though yet.

Zeus on the Loose is a maths and Greek myths game. It's good for speeding up mental addition. It's a card game rather than board game but even the adults quite like it here.

Skyjo has lots of addition and can practise number bonds. Great for my 6 and 8 year olds.
Hexago continuo also uses lots of maths such as doubling or tripling scores.

Some great ideas here, off to Google!
