Introducing a gotta-have math tool that’s actually getting kids excited about multiplication!
Remember learning your multiplication tables in school? Memorization of rote number charts nearly drove us mad, and you probably felt the same way when you were a kid. All we had were boring, “you-have-to-use-these” kinds of math tools. Not inspiring, “you-want-to-have-’em” tools that make you clamor for more.
Flash forward to the Butterfly Junction line of products, custom built for girls ages 7 to 12 and produced by a mom with a daughter who used to struggle with multiplication. The Multiplication Card Set is so fun, girls want to use it and even share with friends. The color and design virtually sing as they pop off the page.
This beautifully designed set of multiplication write ‘n’ wipe cards contains a full table on each card front with a key on the back. Also included is a progress card for tracking finish times. Dry erase markers wipe off with ease. Contained in a hip little tin, the card set is easy to store, fun to carry, and best of all, satisfyingly
educational. All pieces are reusable, making this gift a learning incentive that’s also friendly to the earth.
Set contains:
- 12 write ‘n’ wipe multiplication cards
- 1 write ‘n’ wipe progress card
- 1 aluminum storage case
Available at www.bflyjunction.com or at Amazon
Okay, First of all I can’t say enough good things about these cards. I have been struggling to help my daughter get the multiplication tables for months now. We have used a ton of different methods and none really seemed to stick which in turn made me have to backtrack in my teaching. When I was given the opportunity to review the Butterfly Junction Multiplication Card Set I held on to the hope that maybe, just maybe this would be the thing that would stick!
Well I didn’t have to wait long to see results. Between the cards themselves and the catchy little songs that go along with each of the numbers on the website she was picking things up in no time. I even heard her singing the 7 Times Table song in the shower a few days ago. I find that funny but brilliant at the same time as she is remembering them on her own. My toddler is in the repeating phase right now too and I even heard her say “Seven times one is seven” in tune to the music. She has no idea what she is saying but thought that it was pretty cool.
I really have been impressed with the outcome of my daughter using these cards. Gone are the days of the old boring cards we learned from and in are the Butterfly Junction Multiplication Cards. I recommend them, no, I HIGHLY recommend them to everyone especially those who have children struggling to learn their multiplication tables. They have been such a huge help to me!





















Wow! Those cards sound pretty impressive, and they certainly are eye-catching.
