ABSTRACT:
The present invention entails a matching game and game board therefor for teaching math fundamentals such as multiplication, addition, subtraction, etc., to children. Cards having math problems thereon are distributed about the game board and during the course of the game individual players, via tokens, advance over the cards and around the game board. At the conclusion of each advancement, the particular card that the player lands on is presented as a mathematical problem. An answer is given by a player for that particular problem and the correctness of the answer is checked by a matching answer area formed on the game board itself. According to game rules, a correct answer is appropriately rewarded.
