What is Funexpected Math?
Funexpected Math is an interactive math program with a friendly digital tutor that provides an exploratory introduction to math for PreK-2 students. We help eliminate and reduce academic gaps in the first three years of schooling 3 times faster, as confirmed by independent research, helping more students become math literate. Our program is accessible on any mobile device and supports 16 languages.
Many children enter school with varying levels of readiness due to differences in family backgrounds, experiences, and abilities. Some may already feel comfortable with numbers, while others may struggle with attention or might not speak English fluently. Often, what they need is just a bit more practice than their peers.
That’s where Funexpected comes in, providing the right support at the right moment! We allow students to experience math concepts hands-on: touch them, move them, bend them, play with them – as much as they need to truly understand them. And not just give them instructions and tell them what they need to do.
But the best part is that children genuinely love playing Funexpected! Each month, 50,000 children worldwide learn with Funexpected for Families at home, just for the fun of it. Parents have told us they even use Funexpected as a reward for completing school homework. Join us on our mission to make the next generation of kids math-literate!

It is exceptionally well made. The questions and problems are carefully selected and thought-through. The wide variety of topics, the amazing graphics and audio, the sheer amount of fun this math educational game has provided for my kid (who constantly asks to play the math game, and can spend an hour basically solving math problems and enjoying it) is really something I did not think was possible.
