Now ponder over the phrase ‘Math
Atheist’. Every time I go through this strip, I realize I have always shared
Calvin’s sentiments toward math. When I was a kid, I had a tough time figuring

what if I had developed an early liking towards math! It would have definitely
affected my academic and career choices.
The
choices and preferences a kid develops in school therefore play a fundamental
role in molding his/her future choices. Developing an early interest in math is
key to the overall growth and progress of a child. Understanding this

interactive games for kids. Digital games for kids are one of the most enviable
marvels of technology that has been bestowed upon us today. If you are still
