Roxie's Math Fish

Roxie's Math Fish offers an enjoyable 3D animated game environment in which children easily learn math facts in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

In Roxie's Math Fish, Roxie, a friendly, animated, talking cat, plays "Go Fish" with a child, but, instead of asking for a number, Roxie asks, "Please give me your cards that equal" and says a number corresponding to the result of an addition, subtraction, multiplication or division equation. Roxie gently guides the child in selecting the correct word card.

When a "Go Fish" game is completed, Roxie then sets up a game of "Roxie's Dice," the classic "Shut The Box" game. As a reward, the child may play one round of the game after each "Go Fish" game. The object of Roxie's Dice is to try to close all nine boxes, or as many of the nine boxes as possible, to score the lowest score possible. In this game, children need to be able to add and subtract to determine the best boxes to shut during each roll of the dice.

Roxie's Math Fish is used in schools and libraries in the U.S. and Europe.
