Math Lab for Kids proves that math is more than just numbers—the hands-on activities in this book make learning math fun! In Geometry and Topology, kids learn to think about shapes in new ways by playing with prisms, antiprisms, Platonic solids, Möbius strips, and squeezable, squishable shapes. No expensive supplies are required! Everything needed to complete the activities are included or can be found around the house. Math Lab for Kids: Geometry and Topology will give kids a great experience and a solid foundation in a subject that’s more important than ever.
