Why should parents be excited?
Pumpkinfest is definitely great for kids, but it’ll also be a treat for parents!
Since it’s still early in the school year, it’s the perfect time to encourage more online math practice to help your child reach their fullest potential (both at home and in class).
Getting kids excited about Pumpkinfest will lead to more time in the game, which means more time spent building important math skills in an engaging, adaptive format. It’s a win-win for everyone!
