Comment on Ask HN: How do you practice math with your kids?

Comments

Kid is 5.5. He gets money for doing chores and saves up to buy games and toys. We look at prices online, compare, figure out what he still needs to earn. If he’s short a few dollars I’ll loan him and then it’s dealing with negative numbers. Sometimes a job will have a “bonus multiplier” and then we have multiplication.

I'd like to hear more of your stories. :)
