Cute math is a  ‘math’ game for younger kids;  the game is aptly named as each screen has something ‘cute’ on it that my daughter loved.  I played the game with my 4 year old and she seemed to like it a lot.  

The controls are easy to use and my 4 year old had no problem using the application in the slightest–she knew exactly which items to drag and them various items (numbers, melons, etc).

I thought it was a bit repeatitive, but my daughter kept wanting to play it over and over.  When she got bored with one ‘game’, she’d move on to the next game.  There are several different ‘games’ for the kids to play; each one works with a different math skill: recoginizing the ‘quantity’ that the number represents, recognizing the number itself, basic single digit addition, single digit subtraction, and single digit addition and subtraction (without any quanity being displayed).

I’d say the age group is preschoolers through 1st graders.

Quick Take
Value: High
Would I Buy Again:  Yes
Learning Curve: So easy a kid an use it! (And she did!)
Who Is It For: Preschoolers – First Graders
What I Like: Great interface, good math practice
What I Don’t:  The games get a bit reaptitive, but I think it bothered me more than my daughter
 
Final Statement:  Anything that helps my daughter learn is good by me!  And she gave this one a big thumbs up!
