If so, did your dc like it? Was it helpful in solidifying math facts? I'm thinking of getting it as a supplement for my dd, who is 10.

I hope someone here has used it, because I've read about it on the website several times, and it does look interesting!

I used it with my dd at the end of last year (6th grade). It was a good fit for her -- let her see a little of the "relevance of math," let her be a bit creative (selling pets & stuff to her sibs, drawing pets), and kept her going in math at the end of the school year. It did get a little mind-numbing at the end -- we did it in 10-12 weeks, one "month" a week, and every week is the SAME thing. She never wants to own a business now. :D

I don't know that I'd say it was good for solidifying facts -- it is good for using math they know though, a good "real life" supplement that is generally fun, a filler or summer program. She did learn how to right checks...

HTH! :)
