Addition House makes every girl a MathGirl! Build your own customized play house by getting faster at adding flowers.
A fun game designed for girls + an engaging “right-brain” approach to numbers + cute, fresh graphics = Math Success
A 5-year-old can tackle the first 2 to 5 levels. Older girls will get faster and fluent at adding. All players discover that buying and selling items for the house is a math game too.
Watch out, parents! You might find yourselves sneaking in a few games.
Addition House will help players move from counting on figures to visualizing how many. Players move from 1+1 to 99+9 by exploring groupings of flowers.
