Playing math games online is fun and helps you practice your math facts at the same time. One game I like is Math Lines 10 on the Coolmath.com site—players shoot numbered "bullets" at a moving line of numbers, trying to hit the number that combines with the bullet's number to make 10.
You can find games online for all skill levels, from pre-kindergarten to college. These are sites that have been recommended to me; I haven't spent time on all of them and would appreciate hearing about your experience. If there are other sites with games or drills that your child likes, please let me know.
