Multiplay is a marvellous mathematical game that makes multiplication fun whilst helping children improve their numeric skills. It has never been easier or more enjoyable for kids to learn their times tables!

Not just one fantastic game but three, Multiplay has mathematical variations on the classic pastimes with Times Table Bingo and Go Fish; plus the fast moving test of Quick-fire Multiplay. All three games require quick thinking, and grasp of the basic times tables. But children shouldn’t worry if they find maths difficult; there’s a handy times table square to help until they are multiplying like a mathematical genius!


The brilliance of Multiplay is that all three games can be played by children of different mathematical ability; using the times table square to assist those still learning. This ensures long lasting value and a fantastic game that will be loved by school children whatever their ability.
Unlike other times tables resources, Multiplay teaches children the building blocks of maths through the medium of play, whilst the game’s competitive edge will encourage children to learn their tables before their friends.

Recommended for players from age 6 and upwards, Multiplay is available nationwide and is just one of the many family games from Fiesta Crafts, suppliers of a wide range of educational but fun toys for children.


What the Good Toy Guide Testers said:


Main Features: This mathematical game aims to make multiplication fun, with games such as Times Table Bingo and the Quick-Fire Question Round. The set also comes with a handy times table square, to help those less confident with their numerical skills.


Beneflts: This is a great way to improve concentration and was excellent for promoting mental arithmetic skills... although some children felt it was a little too much like schoolwork for their liking! This would make a good toy library addition for loaning to schools and learning groups.
