Numberblocks

So I have a 5 year and a 2 year old. My eldest has watched this since he was 3 and he's now literally a maths whizz! He just gets numbers in a way me or my wife never did. He knows his square numbers up 20... and pictures them as squares... obvious maybe to us now as adults but I don't ever remember being taught in that way. He understands odds and even numbers, odds having an 'odd top' when arranged in a column of 2 wide. He gets prime numbers, and is able to tell me the prime numbers up to 109. He impressed the head of the school when they were singing "The 12 days of Christmas" she had asked what all the gifts added together would make (I'm pretty sure she wasn't serious) but my son imagined a large step shape and answered "78!". She was blown away!

So in no way is this show "dumbing down" kids tv content. That's a totally ridiculous comment. It's made my kids smarter than they would be without it- it's better then watching about dinosaurs or lego!

Oh and because of this show my 2 year old knows his 2,3,4,5 and 10 times tables. It's actually insane. Love this show.

Numberblocks is a pretty solid show in my opinion. The animation is amazing and the songs are pretty catchy. Not to mention that some episodes even teach things that aren't even apart of preschool mathematics such as Multiplication and Division (take that, Team Umizoomi)! Aside from the wildly toxic fanbase that even makes Vyond look sane in comparison, my only problem is that One can become a pretty arrogant blockhead at times. But overall, I recommend the show and if you hate it, I'm okay with it.

Both of my kids are really into this cartoon. They watch over and over. It really solidifies Math for them both. My son hasn't even started kindergarten yet. He's was already naturally inclined for mathematics but now he is completely ahead of the game. My daughter loves the show as well. She will go to 3rd grade knowing much more this year thanks to your show.

I can't say enough good things about this show. Whether it's the visual representation of numbers and the ability to relay the point across to the audience or it catchy songs; Numberblocks is like a math class your kids will want to attend. It's characters are well written with personalities of their own and they show pride in their numerological abilities, for example there is a square club which contains 1, 4, 9, 16, 25 etc.

The show also strongly grasps all 4 of the basic mathematical functions: +-×÷. It explains these in a way that's fun for children and as long as they have at least some interest in math, they should be able to grasp the concepts and do basic math.

My five year old not only LOVES this show but has learned so much from it. Not only does it teach counting but addition, subtraction, skip counting, square roots and so much more but in a way that kids understand and learn from! And the short episode are perfect and don't make it overwhelming. One of the best learning shows for kids ever!
