Customer Reviews

I was excited about this game but my kid doesn't like it.
My first grade son loves his Leapster and every other cartridge that he owns but he just doesn't like this one. I was hoping that Math Baseball would be a fun way for him to practice his beginning math skills but it hasn't turned out that way. The way the rules are re-explained is annoying for both him and me and even when you answer a problem correctly it doesn't insure that you won't hit a pop up that is caught or pitch a ball that gets hit. I guess thats the way the real world works but my son found it disillusioning and it only further contributed to his lack of interest in this game. My kid loves to learn. He loves to read. He loves to draw. We make up math games at home. I am always looking for a way to keep him stimulated but also encourage him to have a little fun. This game just didn't do it for him.

Great game for getting fast at basic math.
This game is pretty brilliant. It has addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. You first choose if you want a combination or just one. Then you can choose practice or a real game. It works with kids just learning and really challenges those who want to get faster. If your up to bat the faster you answer the question determines how good you hit the ball. You answer really fast you might just hit a home run, and it you miss, then of course you strick out. When your playing out field, you determine how fast you get the other team out by how fast you answer the questions. It's very fun, and easy to learn. I didn't like how they reexplained things every time you change from out field to infield or started a new game, but then we found that if you hit I think it's the home key then you can pass that up, and your fun doesn't get interupted. I think it should also be known that this game is plenty of fun for kids from ages 6-11, and even longer if your kid just needs to strengthen their speed of their math, which coming from a High school math teacher is very important in Junior High and High School math.

Favorite Leapster Game
This is my 6 year olds favorite Leapster Game (and we have a LOT of them). It's a great tool for teaching them their basic math skills while having fun playing at the same time. I have a 4 year old that also owns a Leapster and this is the game that gets fought over the most because they both want to play it at the same time. I definately recommend it for a parent looking to get their baseball fan started learning math.
