My son has a very difficult time with rote memorization. As such, the multiplication tables are forever my nemesis. The very first activity we tried and loved, was shooting at the answers (posted around the backyard) for the 7’s and 8’s on the multiplication table. I am not 100% sure if it helped his retention, but it certainly made practice much more fun!

A couple of months ago, a reader left me a comment on Instagram asking if I had ever used Nerf guns to help my son practice sight words. Since then, I have tried to incorporate one Nerf gun activity into each week (I don’t want it to lose its luster and overdo it with Nerf stuff every day) with some encouraging results.
