Magic Square – math for kids

This math puzzle for kids comes from the creators of the Magic Triangle, Pair Pattern, Multiplication Kakuro and Find the Sign – puzzles that hone your child’s logical reasoning abilities as well as calculation skills.

These math puzzles are more effective for math skill improvement than plain logic puzzles like Sudoku or Kenken – because these puzzles ask your children to do some mental calculation too, in addition to employing logic.

The puzzle magic square features various difficulty levels appropriate for primary grade or elementary school kids between 5-15 years of age. However, this is a puzzle even adults might enjoy solving in their spare time!

The rules are simple. Some numbers are already filled-in in a 3x3 square. You have to fill in the rest of the numbers so that the sum is the same across each row and each column. At each point, finding which cell to fill requires logical reasoning skills. Deriving the number requires mental math abilities.

This math game is good for classroom usage as well as math practice at home. Made by the creators of the award-winning Levelfield School, they are extensively used in primary grade math classes there. Not only they have proved enormously effective in improving the logical reasoning and mental calculation skills of children, they’re fun as well.

There are unlimited number of exercises. You can monitor your child’s accuracy and average time taken to solve sums in each difficulty level. The badge system (silver, gold, platinum) provides a quick preview of your child’s progress.

This app is nominally priced. We believe an ad-free experience is imperative for your child to focus without any distraction.
