Fractonio's Pizzeria (pizzas and fractions) - purplemash
Fractonio's Pizzeria is a neat game, the player needs to serve mixed topping pizzas upon customer requests and avoid a queue building at the shop. It's a game to practise fractions, but not to learn about fractions from scratch. It comes in 3 levels of difficulty and I thought interest on it would wear out quickly but I see it being used quite often by the little ones - I think the time challenge makes it interesting.

Buckets of Reasoning: NRich
I was looking for maths activities to go beyond mental maths skills and was referred to the Nrich website - a really cool 20-year strong website with really loads of material. Baby steps first, I went to Stage 1 & 2 and then from there Features > Reasoning > Identifying Opportunities (task) > Eggs in A Basket, where you'll find the notes for the delivery of the activity and the actual activity. Below is our (father+son) Sunday afternoon version of the activity (in Portuguese).
