BEST Math Websites & Apps for Kids {Teacher Recommended}

May 14, 2020 By Parent Vault 1 Comment

Pin0Facebook0Tweet0

We have compiled an EPIC list of math websites, apps and games for kids that come highly recommended by teachers or by members of our  Facebook Group (which you absolutely must join, if you haven’t yet!). All of our Free Lesson Plans have a math component, but we get asked all the time for more math resources, so we put this together for you!

The majority of math apps and websites are free, however, some of them are only free during the current Coronavirus / COVID-19 period. So to make it easy to differentiate, anything marked with an asterisk (*) either costs money now or will cost money at some point in the future. If you have any suggestions for other great math websites, games or apps, please leave a comment on this post or post them in our Facebook Group! We will continually be updating this list, so save it on Pinterest and check back often (and while you are on Pinterest, follow us here!)

Free Math Games for Kids

Prodigy Math Game Review

Prodigy is an amazingly fun (if not, addictive!!!) way to get your kids hooked on math. Anyone can access the program for free here. The upgrades and premium level are totally optional. My kids love the free version! Secret Insider Tip: Sign-up as a teacher (rather than as a parent), because it will give you more options that way!

*Dreambox Math Game Review

Dreambox is a math game for Kindergarten – 8th grade. To access the full program, you do have to pay for it or your school can apply for a grant. However, the good news is that you can try out three of their learning environments for free here!

Cool Math Game Review

There are lots of free games, however, there are also premium games that cost money. However, if you only play the free games, it is worth checking their website out!

Free math apps and websites for kids

Free Math Lessons

XtraMath Review

XtraMath is a nonprofit organization based in Seattle that is “dedicated to math achievement for all.” Their website and math lessons are completely free, but the XtraMath App does have a small fee but is TOTALLY worth while. Checkout the amazing Amazon reviews!

Sumdog Math Review

You can pick by grade level (Kindergarten through fifth grade), or by problem types (basic facts, multiplication tables, counting by numbers, word problems, money or telling time). Then within each problem type, there are TONS of options for customizing the perfect math worksheets for your kids! Check it out here.

Yummy Math Review

Yummy Math is such a cool concept! They feature loads of real-world math activities. For example, they will post a photo of a price menu from a real deli restaurant that has two price columns: one for a regular sandwich and the other for a “BIG one” sandwich that is 30% bigger. They have to figure out if the “BIG one” is a good deal for all sandwiches, some sandwiches or none at all. Definitely worth checking out this website.

Freckle Math Review

Freckle covers Kindergarten though ninth grade math and is free at this website. There are premium accounts for schools and school districts, but you do not need that! Freckle will give your child a diagnostic test and then continually calibrate to be sure it is customizing the math problems to their skill level.

White Rose Maths Review

White Rose Maths has partnered with BBC Bitesize to offer a huge set of free math lessons from year one through eight (in the U.K. they don’t use the term “grades,” but rather, they use the term “year one,” “year two” etc.) Some of the worksheets are only available for premium members, but either way, the free video lessons are worth watching! You can access them here.

BBC Bitesize Review

*IXL Math Review

IXL is not free, unless your school has paid for it and given you a login, but so many of our readers have mentioned their website as a great resource for math lessons, that we decided to include it (at the very end of the list!).

*Redbird Math Review

Redbird Math is a digital education program to teach kids math, language arts and writing. It was developed by Stanford University (and is part of McGraw Hill) and has tremendous amounts of science and technology to back their research and results. This program does have a fee, but we though it was worth mentioning (as we did with IXL above).

There are, of course, plenty of options for middle schoolers in the list above, but here are options that are specifically (and only) for kids in sixth through eighth grades.

Cool Math Review

Cool Math has free math lessons on their website that cover Pre-Algebra (including factors, primes and decimals), Algebra (including exponents, lines and functions) and Pre-Calculus.

This is a fun one for both adults and kids (ages nine and up, though you can adapt the rules to include younger kids!)

ThinkFun Math Dice Game

ThinkFun is an inexpensive and fun way to practice your early math skills. It is also small enough to make it super portable. We often keep this in the car to bring in to fast casual restaurants when we need to kill some extra time between activities!
