Learning Resources Sum Swamp Game Addition & Subtraction Board Game Math for Toddlers, Ages 5+

Not only is this game so much fun, but it is educational. Perfect for Kindergarden through at least 3rd grade.I am an educator and a Grandma of a 4 and 5 yr. old boys. they love the board that looks like a swamp (very colorful) and the cute monsters and creatures that are fun, but not scary. The dice are always fun to shake and roll, and have just + or - on the one dice and Numbers on the other two dice. The 4 yr. old is learning because the five yr old helps...just like a teacher. They are so proud when they get the right answer and get to move the critter game piece. Upto 4 can play and their choice of critters are so cute! It is not an overly long game, so no frustration from not being able to win for too long of a period. The game is well boxed with colorful pictures and strong cardboard so the box will last. This game is so impressive because it teaches in a way that the children think they are just playing. Holds their attention! It is one of the most innovative learning games I have seen in a long while. I feel it is a wonderful purchase for a gift or just to buy to help the, learn. Their teachers will be so happy and impressed with their increased interest in Math and their accelerated learning. LOVE THIS PRODUCT !!

It is lightweight, children can carry with them in their backpack and play in the park , or while waiting in the doctor checkup

I got this game for my kindergartner to learn math, but my 7th grader also liked to play because it's so much fun! You get to choose your swamp player; between a snake, frog, snail, or turtle. You roll three dice and add or subtract your spots on the board, then there are short cuts and the endless loop that surprise you. You can also learn odd numbers and even numbers as you land on those squares. The whole family loves to play and teaches my youngest how to count. Great product!

This is a fun educational game that my 1st grader is Loving playing with my husband and myself. It's good for practicing basic addition and subtraction (as dice are only 1-6). She is good at it and getting faster the more we play. Hopefully this will translate into a good basic math foundation. If nothing else we are having fun playing while she's learning. And the different spaces on the game board are really fun. You can get stuck in an endless loop that is hard to get out of and makes your opponents glade for the extra time to move a head on the board. There's also short cuts and spaces that make you move a head or backward. It's fun. My family is definitely enjoying it. And we recommend it:)

This game holds your attention. You're either adding or subtracting each turn. I play with my 6 and 10 year old grandchildren and they love it. The board is in large letters and easy to understand. Rules are simple and easy to follow. Basically, you roll 3 die, placing them in order of highest to lowest with the plus or minus in the middle. Hence, if you roll a 5, a + and a 3, you would advance 8 spaces. If you rolled the same with a minus, you would advance 2 spaces. The "little critter" game pieces are a good size for small hands. They do not think of this as a learning game...just a game! Kudo's to whomever thought this one up.

This is such a cute game. It's just a fun way of learning adding and subtracting. While the children are playing they don't realize they are learning in the process! It's simple and even though it says 5+ for the age group, I had 3 and 4 year olds who love it! The game pieces are so cute, frog, turtle, snake, and snail in the swamp, that the children even fuss over who is getting which game piece. It is truly educational.

Introduces your child about the world of Math, by learning about Addition and Subtraction skills. Sum Swamp has a colorful sheet with a long loop that helps them to learn addition and subtraction while playing a game. It makes it more interesting and fun for them. They have to find their way to the finish line by solving a problem with each roll of the dice. It takes them on a journey through the swamp and over endless loops. Each roll of the dice gives them a new challenge. This game can help your preschooler with their math skills. It can be played by 2 to 4 players. I would recommend this for your preschooler.

My two boys, age 7 and 11 played this together. My youngest is struggling with math but this game made learning fun. They were able to understand the rules with no instruction from me as this is very similar to other games. The adding and subtracting of different numbers and counting the squares all in the goal to win is a real hit. The dice are easy to read. I do suggest players if children should get along normally otherwise the competition gets in the way of learning and you may end up with a fight on your hands. My oldest girl, 15, tried playing with my youngest and she got very frustrated as her math level is far above this game and she wanted to win instead of helping her younger brother. But my two boys never new they were learning. If you have a child that is needs help with basic math I do recommend this game. I enjoyed playing with my youngest kid and he even kept me on my toes. You better brush up on your math skills, the kids learn faster than we do. Buy the game and have some quality time helping your child learn and have fun in the process.

We have had fun playing this game, but it's hard to make a full game out of it... my 5 year old's attention span is good, but not great when there isn't any crashing or noise involved!! That said, my child was already pretty good with basic addition and subtraction. This has made him memorize them a little easier. Now he can blurt out the answer as opposed to the first few times we played and we had to write it out or use finger counting. I'd say this is kindergarten-first grade appropriate. I hope they make a game for multiplication!
