I actually have not bought the DVD's. I just created a play list in youtube with their videos.

Thank you for recommending the "They might be giants" videos, my dd really liked them. Karma to you!

This looks like a great site, however, when we try to watch a video it doesn't let it play. It looks like is ready to start, but then nothing happens. Anyone else having this issue?

You are so sweet. Thanks! 

annisis,

Thank you so much for the videos. I'm going to show them to my dd tomorrow to see if she likes them.

lzp11,

Thank you so much for putting all these ideas together.  I actually have been working on a list of videos in youtube from different recommendations and today she didn't want to stop watching them. When she went down for her nap she was signing her numbers, so I was very happy about that. She really liked the Peter Weatherall videos so I just went ahead an ordered them today. They are price very reasonable. I also ordered the foam dice and I'm waiting for them in the mail. Just like you, I need to figure out a way to make it fun. Yesterday I put beads of different colors in a plate full of rice and she had to sort them out by color, she loved it! The activity kept her busy for a while too. After she had sorted them out, we counted them and place the foam number that matched the quantity. After that she was just happy transfering the rice into another container with the spoon. I'm attaching a couple of pics to give you an idea.

I have been thinking about getting an abacus, but not 100% how to use it. I also looked into Numicon, maybe you can let me know how it goes if you order it. Just like you, I don't think we are ready for worksheets, but I"m going to print the free worksheet they have at touchmath's site and see how she is doing.

I'll strongly recommend getting Math into the Moon from Leapfrog. I think is very well made.

Let's keep the post alive with updates and new ideas    I really appreciate everyone's input.

PS. You are right I'm tired,so my patience level is low    But the first trimester was the toughest.

I'm glad you found a solution. For people that may have the same issue and do not have sewing skills (like me  ), this may work. We used this sleeping sack with feet since my dd was a year old until she was potty trained. It worked great because she could move around. Now we just keep the room warm and put on warm pj's.

It looks like a few of us are having the same issue. These posts my help you a bit:

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detail post. I really appreciate your input. My daughter is 26 months old. She definitely knows her numbers up to 10, in order and recognizes the numeral. Sometimes she counts up to 10 just fine and other she is all over the place. When it comes to the numerals above 10 she has no clue. I did Doman's math flashcards when she was around 6-9 months old and showed her the whole Doman program in LM when she wasn't even 1. She used to love to count, but not anymore. We try to practice with just daily things, but when we say let's count, she says "no counting" and that is the end of it. I wonder if she just feels tested all the time, when we say "Let's count"  . As you can see my issue is not with the numbers up to 10, but eh ones beyond. We own the Leap Frog moon math adventure, it is very good, she likes it, but hasn't watched for a while. She always prefers to watch something with letters, words and read. We wonder if she just doesn't like math and she just loves reading. She know her letters and the sounds since she was 16 months old and it's in the process to learn to read phonetically.

She is not really into crafts or coloring books. I'm not sure if she gets it from us since neither one is crafty at all. I do have to try dough more often since she seems to like. I just checked just blog and the post about the fractions was very nice. I'll try that.

She likes puzzles and has her number puzzle, but it comes only up to 10. I though about getting a 100 numbers board, but I'm not sure the tiles will be difficult for her to handle.

Also, I'm going to check the other DVD's you recommended. DVD's seem to be a good tool for us. I have to admit, as much as I have tried, I don't think I'm a good teacher    I keep trying new activities so she is not watching too much tv, but at the end my dd gets inpatient, I get inpatient and we go nowhere.

I have two more months before my second baby arrives, so we'll see how much we can accomplish. Thanks again for your input.

Thank you so much to all of you for your replies. I'm still trying to decide what to do since my dd doesn't seem to be interested in math, at all!    I checked the Shiller Math and the Alabacus sites and it seems like both programs are designed for kids 4 and older. Even if my dd was advance in math, it looks like she wouldn't be ready for these. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Maquenzie,

Thank you very much for the links. They have very valuable information.

I have been trying some very basic counting games with my daughter and she just doesn't want to anything with them. I may have to wait at least a couple of weeks and try again, to see if she changes her attitude  All these programs are pricey and I don't want to get something and not use it.

I'll post later to give an update in case we decide to buy any of the programs.

I'm wondering if someone has used this kit and followed the curriculum. I'm looking for a new math program since my dd doesn't want to do LM anymore. I read the reviews about Jones Geniuses and I don't think it would work for us. I like TouchMath, but the price is out of the question. Any suggestions are welcome. I have not really followed any Montessori methods, but I like this kit because it comes the curriculum. There is not much information out there, but maybe someone that know Montessori can give me an idea of how successful I could be with a 2 year old and this program.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Those are great ideas Sarah. Where did you get the dice? Would you mind posting pictures of the beads strings? Or do you happen to have a link to the Montessori method you are referring to? I'm too looking for new math games since my dd doesn't like LM anymore. She likes the numerals, but not the actual "dots" or whatever shows instead of them.

This is in English 

Thanks for the info mtb999. Does the CD room have audio? Meaning does it come with pronunciation?

Vote is in! Buena suerte! 

Our first was a surprise, but for the second one we tried www.tcoyf.com after we had tried on our own for about three months. We got pregnant within a month of using the method. It was great because right now they are doing the free beta test for the charting and it makes it so much easier. It really helps you to understand your body which is key for the process. I first heard of this method from a girl that had problems conceiving and after 6 years of trying was able to get pregnant with the method.

Best wishes on your journey.
