Last week when I was unpacking that huge box of goodies I realized that
Educator's Outlet had accidentally sent me 2 of the Ring-O- Links. When I called the company to tell them my problem, they explained that they had not charged me for the extra set, told me I could keep it and do with them what ever I wanted with it. Soooo, I thought it would be a fun little idea to offer it to one of you.
If you would like a chance to win a set of Ring-O-Links 1)You Must Publicly Follow Living Sola Gratia and 2) Leave me a comment about your favorite hands on math activity, 3) Be a US Resident. I will run the contest until 3/14/10. Please be sure to include your email so that I can contact you.

We love our Math-U-See blocks for Math but also recently found "SMATH" a hands on scrabble like Math game that is a ton of Math fun.
I love soo many...umm I like Al Abacus from RS math...I love cooking and working on things like fractions...I love going to the grocery store with my son and having him help weigh produce...or doing simple math with how much things cost...OR playing store...at home...we also like working on counting and stuff with some sort of active thing...like throw a ball x number of times...show 3+2 by jumping etc. I know you said favorite...but how can I pick a favorite?!? They are all soo much fun... ;) Hopefully this gives some people some fun hands on ideas...
I also am now following your blog ;) thanks for the giveaway!!!
We are a My Father's World family using MathUSee. Our favorite math activity with our 4-year-old is playing with the talking cash register he got for his birthday. He's starting to learn to identify coins and their values and enjoys the games and quizzes the register prompts him to play.

P.S. Just started following your blog. Please feel free to visit mine to - I have several to choose from. ;)
A couple of neat things we found this year for hands-on math are the Magnetic Mighty Mind shapes for ages 3-8. Also, I like the "Telling the Time" wipe-clean flashcards from Usborne Farmyard Tales.
We're using the Lauri Number puzzles peg board (something like that) lately and my little ones love it. We're getting ready to purchase Right Start Math so I'm really looking forward to that. We use MFW too (Kinder and Adventures)
Thanks for the giveaway :) I follow your blog too.

Hi! Just found you =] I am following and we like linking cubes.
Your blog is great! Fun ideas. I'm following now.
We would love to win these. We really don't have a whole lot of fun math activities as we've focused on reading and lapbooks. We have used free file folder games, board/card games, and lots of real-life cooking/baking.
Thanks for the giveaway!

We use Math-u-see (which my youngest LOVES to play with the blocks)but for fun my oldest likes to use the flash action software games for addition and subtraction games and Timez Attack game for multiplication.
Thanks for a chance to win!

Legos! What you say, well I love the idea of ten blocks and such but found by naming the different sized legos different place values my boys took to them well and have enjoyed making creations and telling me how much it is "worth". And they are free already had so many!!!!
