    While learning word problems, perhaps the most common difficulty kids experience is due to the language, or text used in the questions. Often, they find it difficult to understand the question, which makes solving the word problem a challenge.

    To combat this issue, SplashLearn has designed games in such a way that children not only understand the descriptive language used in the question, but they develop the ability to solve the questions within a snap of a finger!

    Our games are intended to make the entire learning process visual-centric, fascinating, fun-filled, and interactive, which leaves kids wanting more. Read on to know more about how SplashLearn is revolutionizing the entire learning process for kids.

    Introduction

    Learning math can be a really challenging experience, especially for young students. However, it is possible to make kids learn and adore the subject by employing an appropriate teaching methodology.

    In real life, math questions don't typically present themselves as 5 + 5. All things considered, real-life scenarios are somewhat more challenging. To demonstrate this, math syllabus makers use word problems to help kids see what occurs in the real world. 

    Word problems range all the way from easy to complex. Word problems, also commonly known as story problems, revolve around various mathematical concepts such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fraction, decimals, etc. They are fundamental building blocks that teach students to apply the mathematical concepts in other future contexts exceptionally. 

    Here are some examples to give you a better idea about word problems: 

    Being a comprehensive, interactive, and user-friendly online platform, all our games are designed to develop the ultimate mathematical aptitude within kids' minds. Our games help them score well in their tests and exams while also building a love for math. 

    The following sections explore how math word problem games can help kids solve them in a speedy and efficient way.

    How Math Word Problem Games Boost Learning

    The following sections explore how word problem games can help kids of any grade solve them with ease. 

    Boost Strategic Thinking

    Our math games help kids build their critical thinking and analytical abilities. By applying various strategies in a game, kids utilize their working memory to easily solve word problems, expanding their cognitive abilities for an incredible mental workout. These strategic thinking abilities assist them in becoming great decision-makers in other aspects of life too. 

    Word Problem games help kids to break down and understand real-life scenarios in vivid detail. This opportunity helps kids to draw concrete conclusions and ultimately become strategic thinkers.

    Immense Skill Development

    Solving word problems on a worksheet can often be very overwhelming and stress-inducing for kids. Likewise, they can develop a negative view in a kid’s mind about the educational atmosphere.

    Math games are a phenomenal alternative to this problem. This is because the games revolving around word problems encourage kids to continue trying until they find out the correct answer without the possibility of feeling embarrassed like they would in a classroom.

    Word problem games help build up cognitive and comprehension skills in kids' minds. Additionally, the comprehension skills assist them in developing a strong command of the English Language.

    Hunger For Learning

    When kids play a math game, endorphins (feel-good hormones) are produced, providing intense stimulation to the brain and evoking happiness. Word problem games encourage kids to come up with a solution to the problem by making them use their logical and creative thinking abilities.

    This ultimately assists in developing an extraordinary sense of satisfaction which helps foster a hunger for learning in kids.

    Help Your Kids Get Better at Math

    Simplify the concept of word problems for your kids with our smart and interactive games.

    The following is a sample question of one of the word problem questions - "Reeve has 5 ropes of 500m each. He ties all the ropes end to end. Find the length of the new rope."

    Below the question, the options are written on the bellies of charming animated characters. These cute animated characters perform an adorable dance when kids answer a question correctly or incorrectly, making it a fun way to receive feedback.

    'Word Problems on Adding Money' and 'Word Problems with Decimal Amounts' are some of the interesting math games that teach kids how to practically calculate their money to help them become independent from a young age.

    Our suggestion is to make kids play these word problem games regularly to bring the best out of their mathematical abilities.
