Crazy 4 Math
Age Range: 5-12 (approximately, with lots of encouragement for families to learn math together)
Our friends at GoogolPower.com have announced their annual Crazy 4 Math Contest to help children and their families experience the wonder of learning by exploring and developing math activities they enjoy. (My Carschooling® website is a sponsor!)
Math is used in just about every part of our lives; gardening, cooking, music, art, crafts, games, travel, shopping – even sports! To enter the Crazy 4 Math Contest, children simply have to describe how they use math in an activity they enjoy. The Crazy 4 Math Contest deadline is July 30th.
Everyone wins something! This year, all participants will receive several MP3s from Googol Power’s inspirational learning music and a certificate of participation. Finalists and winners will get terrific prizes!
The most important thing is for children and families to find new ways to discover math all around them and share them via this online contest. Entry ideas are posted to the site so kids can see that there are others all over the world who are equally Crazy 4 Math. The goal is to generate a free list of learning ideas to inspire families and teachers. There are hundreds of great entries posted from previous years and you can check out and vote online for your favorite entry in August.
But that’s not all…
If you’ve never visited the Googol Power website – get ready to be amazed. There is a wealth of learning material – some for free, some for a fee – and you can access it all by exploring the menu.

When the page opens explore what’s there – but don’t miss the “sub-menu” near the top of the page where you can link to free math articles, tips, arts and crafts, online videos and games, seasonal math ideas, free worksheets and much more!
Good luck to all who enter the Crazy 4 Math contest!
