Community Review for Math Playground
My Take
Math Playground is a good resource with several different types of games that make learning fun for kids. I like how the website lets you choose which grade level you want to play a game from, ranging from K–6. There are lots of different categories of games. I think my one criticism of this website would be that it is called “Math Playground”, but not all of the games revolve around math. Some games can be repetitive at times, but otherwise I think this website is a great resource for young kids.
How I Use It
I would use this resource to potentially supplement lessons. This is definitely not to be used as the primary source of education, but rather to make practicing the lesson fun and engaging.

Potential to be Fun, but Overwhelming Overall
Math Playground has potential. It covers quite a few math subjects from fractions to pre-algebra and also includes different skill levels. I also enjoy that it's art style is definitely designed to attract young children's attentions and most kids will find the games engaging. However, the amount of games is simply overwhelming. If the featured games are not what you are looking for and you click on the "more games" option you will find yourself with a wall of a large number of games, each with a different concept than the next. There is simply no time to go through them all and having to scroll through so many makes the sight a little unappealing. As the description on Common Sense Education says, there are also many advertisements that can be seen as distracting and many of the games are unrelated to math or do not help build reliable math skills.
