I learned about this through the unschooling math listed called “Mathing Off.”
I explored it for a bit and there are some really great games on it that will enhance a child’s math skills as long as you’re there to provide feedback and assistance. It’s not providing explanations, so you really need to spend time with your child when he or she visits the site the first few times.
One game, “Add It Up” is lots of fun. I also liked the one designed to improve spatial skills. Very cool.
With so many math sites out there, I’ll try to wade through them and post about some of the best ones here.

Wow..organized by standard, grade, and subject. This is an AMAZING resource for homeschooling parents and teachers. I used this site a lot when I was teaching and forgot about it until recently..
The site was just updated in December so there should be no dead links:

My son has been using this since age 3. It’s a phenomenal FREE site for new readers. Great for those just learning their letters as well as those who are learning phonics. It’s very child-friendly and just plain FUN! If you haven’t seen this one yet, it’s worth checking out. It includes stories and games for more advanced readers as well.
