And I’m trying several new reward options I’ve never done before. In addition to the math game books, you can show your mathy spirit for everyone to see with three cool merchandise rewards.

(The “rewards” on Kickstarter are all the various things you can buy with your support pledge.)

Here’s a quick peek at the new things to come.

This is going to be so much fun!

I’m finishing up my plans for the new Tabletop Math Games Collection Kickstarter project and pledge levels, which launches in just under two weeks. Where did the time go?!

But I need help.

Could you please take a few minutes to look over the project page and give me some feedback?

• Preview & Comments Page
  (NO account required to see the preview, but you may need to log in if you want to leave a comment.)

It’s so hard to edit myself because my mind knows what the text is supposed to say, so I miss too many mistakes. Having new eyes on the page would be a great help in catching typos and making sure the descriptions make sense and are as clear as possible.

We have less than 36 hours to go on the Tabletop Math Games Collection Kickstarter.

Thank you so much to everyone who has backed these fun books. Your encouragement and support keep me going!

Don’t Put It Off

Most of my books eventually show up in the regular online bookstores, making it easy to delay purchasing.

But these are not typical paperback or hardcover books. Instead, they’re designed to lay flat so players can use the gameboards or easily refer to rules as they play.

I don’t know whether the online bookstores will stock these titles.

But I do know we’re counting down the hours on our Tabletop Math Games Collection Kickstarter campaign.

Do you really want to miss out?

Scroll down for a peek at what other people say about my math games.

Readers Love These Games

👍 “When I’m asked about resources for math games, Denise Gaskins is one of the first names I mention.”
—Dan Finkel, creator of the Prime Climb math board game

❤️ “If I could go back in time, I would play a lot more games.”
—Carla Roesler, homeschooling parent

👍 “The directions are clear, it is easy for parents to pick up and use, yet it gets to the heart of mathematical thinking in a fun, engaging way.”
—Casey Maupin, homeschooling parent

❤️ “The games are easy to put into practice (even for a mom of 4 with 2 toddlers) and something my daughter would participate in willingly or even enjoy (which is saying a lot for a teen who doesn’t always appreciate a challenge). Clever, helpful, and creative in ways I’d never come up with.”
—Casey Baldwin, homeschooling parent

And I’m trying several new reward options I’ve never done before. (The “rewards” on Kickstarter are all the various things you can buy with your support pledge.)

Here’s a quick peek at a few of the new things to come.

This is going to be so much fun!

Math Games Book Boxes

You can choose from two sizes.

The smaller Math Games Book Box includes one paperback Math Games Booklet at your child’s level: Early Games, Primary Games, or Advanced Games. Plus one enamel pin, and either a set of cards and dice or a small whiteboard with markers.

The Mega Math Games Gift Box includes the spiral-bound Deluxe Omnibus book (which contains all three smaller books and more), plus all unlocked pin designs, and plenty of cards, dice, and other handy supplies shown above. (Colors will vary.)

Enamel Pins

Show your gaming spirit with these cool enamel pins.

By popular request, we have enamel pins in four designs. The first two are available immediately, and two more will unlock as Stretch Goals.

• “Let’s Play Math” in cool spring colors
• “Let’s Play Math” in warm fall colors
• 🔒 [Locked] Deck of playing cards (unlocks at Stretch Goal #1)
• 🔒 [Locked] Penrose triangle of rainbow blocks from the back of the playing cards (unlocks at Stretch Goal #3)

Pins are about 1″ diameter hard enamel, for the perfect combination of durability and fun color. Backed with a metal military-style butterfly clip for extra strength, so it won’t fall off your backpack or bag.

If you choose a reward level that includes pins, or buy them as an add-on to another level, be sure to fill out your post-campaign survey to tell me which design you want.

Limited International Shipping

Digital rewards are available worldwide.

For physical books and merchandise, I can offer shipping to a few countries with small-business-friendly tax laws:

• UK, for books only (no merchandise)
• European Union
• Canada
• Australia
• New Zealand
• South Africa
• and the US, as always

You may owe import duties and VAT before you can claim your package. I have no control over the customs clearance process in your country, so you might want to check with your local customs officials or post office for details on what to expect.
