Math Art and Drawing Games For Kids Introduction I really did not like math at first. I remember crying over it often as a kid. I was so relieved when I was finished taking my last math class in college, thinking I would be finished with it forever! When I started homeschooling my kids, I saw that this would not be the case. It was when my own kids started telling me that they hated math that I really thought hard about how to teach it in new ways. It was important to me that my kids did not have the same feelings about math that I always did. We always hear how important it is to know and understand math. Its used in life in so many ways. When you can find a little joy and meaning in math, theres less fear of it. In this book, I teach you different ways its used in real life. These art projects will help you bring some excitement to your math lessons by getting creative and messy with math! This book is geared towards kids ages 8 to 12. I have two kids in that age range, and they did each project along with me as I worked on this book. It made me smile to see how much fun they had. The most important thing I want to you understand from this book is that math really and truly can be enjoyable. So get ready to have fun and create some amazing art!
