(Newswire.net — June 13, 2015) Saratoga, FL — For years Mathematics has been seen as the scariest thing by kids in school.  Due to the complexity of the concepts many become frustrated and develop a mental block for the subject.  This issue with Mathematics has been proven to be a worldwide problem that affects children everywhere.   Many parents today are also frightened by the subject as the math they see their children doing seems foreign to them.

An associate professor in the faculty of education at Queen’s University in Canada, Lynda Colgan, mentioned, “The anxiety around mathematics is unbelievable among parents, because they see the math their children are doing in schools as being so different from what they did.  They’re so intimidated by math, and societally, math has such a negative image, and it’s perpetuated in so many different ways, subtly and explicitly.”

The professor highlighted that research over the years have proven that the students with parents who are involved in their education tend to do better at school.  She believes that teachers alone cannot change this mindset of students towards math.

Simply Clever has done their own research which resulted in the conception of a deck of math flash cards that can help to change the view of mathematics.  The company designed the flash cards to alleviate the struggle children face with the subject as an alternative to the typical classroom setting.

The deck contains 52 attractively color coded playing cards that double as flash cards, and also included is a free guide with fun educational activities and games that parents can play with their children to nail difficult concepts.  Simply Clever Cards is confident that children would “have fun and learn” with their math flash cards, as was made bold in their company’s motto.

One parent, Lori Hudson, believes the cards are ideal for making math fun for children.  “This is a great value…because you aren’t stuck playing just one game.  When you order these cards you will get an email with instructions on how to incorporate some of your favorite card games,” she shared.  

“I remember being in school and hating learning my multiplication table, it was so boring,” she continued.  “I think if I would have had something like these cards that incorporated games, I would have had a much greater learning experience.  You don’t have to worry about getting your children to pay attention with these cards, they will be like mine and begging to play again.  My children have had so much fun while playing them, they don’t even notice it is a math lesson.”
