In this incredibly fun and engaging series, young children learn to recognize, solve and enjoy mathematical problems. Charming, fairy-tale style programs put math into a meaningful context, and draw viewers into the story-related problems involving numbers, measurement, and geometry. This program makes math fun and relevant. A review at the end of each program, topped off by a new open-ended problem, reinforces the learning throughout.
