KidsMath is a set of eight arithmetic games aimed at children between 3 and 8. That's a rather ambitious goal as it covers the widely differing capabilities of preschoolers to third-graders. In fact, KidsMath will prove tough for younger users. Most eight-year-olds, however, will find it to be plenty of educational fun.
Unfortunately, KidsMath doesn't take advantage of larger-than-9-inch Mac screens or color. Color, in particular, would make the details of the games easier to see and would grab attention more effectively. And the clarity of the visual clues is poor. Expect to have to teach a nonreading child how to play KidsMath. There are some other flaws too. For example, in the arcade-like Paddle Ball, it's not enough to click on the right answer. The child must also click on the OK button at the bottom of the column of numbers.
But the games offer a sufficient variety of challenges to hold a child's interest, and several have exceptional features, such as animated coaching when the child selects the wrong answer.
