Logic Learning Games For Kids Logic Games Logic Games Kids love to learn with online games. Flash games make it easy for kids to improve their logic skills and analytical reasoning. Logical thinking goes hand in hand with problem solving, both of which are important skills for kids to learn. Math Games Place Value We write numbers using only ten symbols (called Digits). Where we place them is important. The Ten Digits The Digits we use today are called "Hindu-Arabic Numerals" and look like these: We can use these on their own to count up to 9: But what happens after 9? Ten Or More ... When we have more than 9 items, we start another column - the "tens" column - and we write down how many "tens" we have, followed by how many "ones" (also called "units"). Example: this is how we write down twelve: The Number "12" It says we have 1 Ten and 2 Ones, which makes 12. This can also be written as 1 × 10 + 2 × 1. Example: "35" means 3 Tens and 5 Ones, which is also 3 × 10 + 5 × 1 The Number "35" Zero What if we have 1 Ten, but no Ones? The Number "10" We have to put a zero in the Ones place, or "10" would look like "1". A Hundred Or More ... When we have more than 99 items, we start another column - the "hundreds" column. The Number 143 That shows we have 1 Hundred, 4 Tens and 3 Ones: Which is also 3 × 100 + 6 × 10 + 9 × 1
