I purchased this game for my then 4.5yo and 6 yo last December. Both find it easy to operate but the math still makes them think.

This is a birthday present for my grandson. It arrived quickly and I wrapped it and sent it on to Japan. Boy grandsons love the software and it is small enough to send economically.
Great game... Posted 02 September 2008
My 4.5 yr. old son has a few Leapster game but this is definitely a favourite. Great for reviewing basic math concepts and teaching new ones.
A fun little math game Posted 03 July 2008
Because I am not a teacher, but I'm interested in doing everything I can to constantly help my 6-year-old son learn some simple math skills, I am always looking for little ways to trick some learning into him.
Also, I'm one of those "crazy" parents who is sort of against video games -- I mean, he's only six, he doesn't need to sit in front of the tv for hours. However, I do like the Leapster games. It satisfies his need to play video games like some of his friends, but the cartridges are reliably G-rated and they always teach something.
Cosmic Math is very much like the old Asteroids game we had when I was young. You're given an equation, like "2+6=" and then your ship is surrounded by asteroids that circle the ship getting closer and closer. Each asteroid contains a number and only one contains the correct answer. Try to destroy it before the asteroids destroy the ship. So it drills my son on simple math problems, helping him to learn to figure them out faster. There are different levels with subtraction, multiplication and I think division (we're not there yet). He likes to travel with it and play it for a little while on rainy days -- that kind of thing. It's a great little toy and a good game.
