Hmmm, math facts on car rides could be a problem. His favorite thing in the world (besides Transformers, of course) is to play "the last letter game," where we take turns naming a word that starts with the last letter of the word before. So "aardvark" leads to "kleptomaniac" leads to "cavort." And so on.

It's virtually the only concerted vocabulary and spelling work I do with him, he loves it, and we play it nearly every time we're in the car. I don't think he'd take kindly to subbing in math facts for the game...

I'll see what I can do, but I'm betting we'd have better luck during school time on this one with our particular child. I'll see if I can think of a way to work it into the car without complaint though. Thanks!
