If your son is already as advanced in math, reading him the Life of Fred books will not change how advanced he is before K, or affect his boredom of the K math curriculum. (You won't believe how basic it is.) But I do think you should have your mathematician husband vet the Life of Fred books first. Personally I'm not impressed at all by the books and they don't required working out any problems. I don't think it will change your problem one way or another.

FYI are a number of fun math books for this age kids. There were many good books suggestions made on a recent thread about infinity. (I'll post a link if I find it.)

Edited to add that I found the link and you were the one to post the most interesting book on it, so you probably don't need this.
