I find that young kids find math pretty intuitive – so the key seems to be how to keep them from getting scared off as they get older…

I have to admit that I never really enjoyed math but I am really loving re-exploring the basics with my kids. It is so much fun to watch them explore math manipulatives and see the connections they make.

I think that we transfer so much of ourselves to our children while raising them and our own positive attitude will help them try harder at difficult things in math in particular and in life in general.

I agree – and remembering this is one of the ways I force myself to maintain a positive attitude (or at least try to) when the going gets tough.

Baking is definitely my favorite way to practice fractions!
