The possibility of any child learning through playing educational games is considerably higher than is achieved by reading a text book or listening in class. Unfortunately the chance to play these games in school is limited to the timetable, equipment available, and inevitably a shared experience. Although this has some merit as children learn quickly from their peers it lacks the opportunity for a child to practice the content at their own pace.
Teachers, welcoming the involvement of parents have sought many ways in the past to mobilise parents with mixed success. Now the same maths games, science games and reading games etc. used as classroom resources can be used at home to make a real difference.
Learning seen as fun naturally attracts a child's attention helping them to excel. Used to supplement conventional homework that is mostly seen as a chore, these games present a fantastic chance for parents to get pro-actively involved from foundation to GCSE.
