    Okay, so I have consistently heard negative reviews for leap frog's math circus. Ansley loves the leap frog letter factory and talking words factory and has learned so much from them.....I want to know if there is a math video anyone would recommend. Thanks in advance!

    My kids love Math Circus! I think it is almost as good as Letter Factory. IMO smile I have heard really negative reviews Leap Frog's new school DVD.

    My DS #1 likes the tv show Cyberchasers (PBS) now but it may still be a bit mature for your DD.

    I'm interested to find one, too, AmazedMom. I'm one of those people who thinks the Math Circus is a confusing mess for kids to learn from. That's just my opinion, though. smile

    I think numbers and math are more difficult to teach since it's more abstract and esoteric than reading. I'm sure that makes it more difficult to create a math program. smile

    I figure for 8 bucks I can try Math Circus and if it is totally confusing then oh well, not much wasted, but I would love to find something that catches DD attention and sparks her intrest like Letter Factory and Talking Words Factory have.
