Math is one of those things that requires a lot of repetition, and today I am sharing a new, cool math activity for kids. The best way I’ve found to take the monotony out of math, is to use a variety of activities. It keeps it new, interesting, and fun.
Math activities don’t have to be complicated. They can also be inexpensive and easy to put together as well. Simple and easy are the best kind in my opinion.
What matters is that they are helping children repeat and review math facts and skills that they need to be successful.
This cool math activity for kids is very simple, but a lot of fun. It only takes a minute or two to put together, and can be used for a variety of math skills. Here’s how to make it:

That’s the most simple version for beginning math. If you want to get more complicated for older grades, make these few changes.
You can also use this to practice multiplication and division. Make the adjustments to the cups to give yourself the correct answer combinations.
Math can be so fun and interactive. I hope you enjoyed this cool math activity for kids. Let us know how you use it in a comment below, or visit us on YouTube or Facebook.

can you use cups that are not made of styrofoam?
I’ve never tried, but you might be able to. Part of the reason the Styrofoam works well is because of the “edge” on the top of the cup.
Everyone should try! It is super FUN. It is really cool that you can do something like this.
