....ds(8)just switches off and I'm at my wits end, he says he "can't" do it.
Thanks.

try here

There's using the clock system. Draw a clock face and put in the numbers. Each clock is for a particular times table. The child has to write the multiple next to the right clock face number. It's fast and visual and a bit different.

Try the free download of Timez Attack from BigBrainz

It is a video style game and boys especially seem to love it.

I have used something really brilliant for 8 year old boys who like computer games... I am off to look for the link...

Same one SatanGeorge suggested!

Try this. Children seem to love it.

That Big Brainz thing (SatanGeorge/Cadmum) is brilliant.
