Thankfully, if you search hard enough, you can find some toddler game sites that have some very cool math games that toddlers will love.

The following list includes five great toddler game sites that offer useful math games for your child or preschool student.

Kid Space

Kid Space touts itself as a place for "education, fun games and safety for kids online". There are plenty of things for toddlers to do beyond math, but if math games are what you're looking for, this site does have a few offerings.



Kids Space Activities


There are just a few math games available, but they are high quality and very fun to play. One game in particular that is sure to capture the interest of your toddler is the game called "Math Lines".



Math Lines Game


This game follows the general theme of other arcade-style "bubble-shooter" games on the Internet. Most kids learn to play those games very fast, because they're so simple. The entire premise is just matching up colors. However, this game uses numbers instead. The goal is to put numbers together that total to ten.

While many toddlers won't understand the number part of the game at first, by playing for a while, the game will eventually start teaching toddlers how to add two numbers together.

Knowledge Adventure

Knowledge Adventure is an online game site like most others out there. The difference is that Knowledge Adventure caters to the younger crowd, and focuses mostly on games that are educational in nature.

This site has a nice collection of math games, and surprisingly many of them would be more than appropriate for toddlers. One example is Tower Blocks, a game where the goal is to build the largest tower in the world by dropping blocks from a crane and stacking them up evenly.


Tower Blocks


While this is obviously somewhat arcade in nature, the game actually teaches math concepts in subtle ways. For example, you can only drop 3 blocks, and you'll see dropped blocks count down from three (teaching counting). You will also see the ruler on the left count the number of levels of blocks successfully built.

This kind of game is a great way to introduce counting and addition to young minds.

Soft Schools

SoftSchools.com is a large educational site covering topics like phonics, spanish, science, social studies and more. The math content of the site is by far the largest. There is an entire section focused on just preschool math games and worksheets.

This is also one of the few sites that offer games that are very much focused on educational concepts that toddlers need to learn before going to kindergarten. One example of this is the "Counting up to 10" game, which teaches the very simple, yet important, concept of counting objects.
