Through this simple and fun game, children learn about surface tension (when the water goes higher than the glass without spilling). And of course there is so much thrill trying not to be the one to spill the water eventually. This is a great motor skill test for kids too!

When writing these books, my goal was to make the abstract math concepts relatable and meaningful for young children. Each story brings children through the day of the cute animal characters so they can see how Math is used in everyday life! I also added materials at the back of each book so that you can use them to create fun hands-on activities for your children to reinforce the Math concepts. The Happy Learning Math books are now available on Amazon US, Amazon UK, Lazada and major bookstor
