Zapzapmath through the Summer

This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here.

Summer vacation is just around the corner for my children while others are well into their vacations. As a mom I don't want my children to fall behind with their math or reading skills so I like to keep things on hand so they stay on level and maybe gain a few things too. The object for me is to make it fun as well as educational.

I found a great Math app to add to our lineup called Zapzapmath which you can find out more about here. I have a list of specs below for you as well. I was able to get ZApzapmath Home Premium to try for my girls and so far my oldest is loving it but have to wait for my grand daughter to get her so she can check it out as well. Make sure to read below for a nice discount on this app before buying.

What I love most about this is that one account can hold up to 3 children so you save even more if you have multiple children. I downloaded this on my Apple system, and it can also be downloaded on Android but please be aware that they do not support Kindle which was a bummer for us because they are the tablets we ended up going with when we upgraded everyone.

This is great for both the child who loves math and those who need to like it more then they do. While playing each child can accessorize their Avatar and build their own little world. Just think while they are having fun they are also learning which is a win win.

With zapzapmath home you will also get fun learning & math tools which are awesome to have on hand too. This is my opinion and one I think most parents will share with me. If you make learning fun then a child seems to learn better and they retain it much longer then if they just are working through something they don't like or do well at. Giving your child the right tools to succeed is so important in today's society, so why not make it fun too.

Zapzapmath goes from grades K-6 so this will take your little scholar a long way. You get 10 apps with over 180 games.

Charge and Organize

I like to multi task as much as possible, and if I an find a product that can do two things at once I am super happy. Our family misses our old house with large rooms and plenty of space for everything including a room of our very own for a home office. Gone are those days. We have gone from a 6 bedroom house to a 2 bedroom apartment. We are making due, but many of our things are still in storage while we are still finding how to put things in the space we have in our new home. We have donated many items as well having to throw out items due to mice getting into storage unit and ruining items.

So with having said that we are still trying to come up with a working plan for a home office that can handle a place for both my husband and myself to be able to have room to do our thing on the internet. While still having space to have items available for the kids crafting as well as our own do-it-yourself projects. We really are a family that needs just a bit more space maybe a home with a garage and one extra room but that is for another conversation. Back to the task on hand.

First and foremost. A spot for everyone to charge their devices where we can find them and charge them without having to hunt down a cord and if people come to visit they can hook up as well. This charger from Mstjry was just what we needed to really get us started on organizing in a smaller space. I am so excited by this and it fits everything we have in our home.

I love that if someone visits we now have a dedicated spot where they can charge so there is no chance of missing cords or electronics. Everything is super easy to find and ready to use. Comes with three IOS or apple cords and two android cords. You can also change out your own cords for the cords needed as long as it starts with the USB connector.

Aleratec 2-in-1 Tablet Stand/Hand Strap Holder

I have a case I really like but it is getting worn out fast from constant use. I have been eyeing a new case I hope to get soon, but a nice alternative until my case comes in is the Aleratec 2-in-1 Tablet Stand/Hand Strap Holder. This is really nice.

I love how versatile this is, works for both people who are left handed as well as right handed which is really important since my husband is left handed and we have one child that is ambidextrous.

Once I get my new case this will still be used for when I need my ipad mini to be standing up or when I am reading a book online. This is a perfect way to read online books, magazines, and even video tape events around you.

Very easy to install, sturdy, comfortable fit for hand, and leaves the camera unblocked for use when ever you need it. Different elastics are included to get the right fit on your tablet from 7 to 10 inches.

You can find this Aleratec 2-in-1 Tablet Stand/Hand Strap Holder on Amazon.

Wireless Bluetooth headphones and armband combo

This is an awesome set for your teenage athlete, runner, trainer. Great for both teens and adults. Fit my daughters iPod with her case on it inside with no problems. Being able to keep her case on is a big thing so when she takes it out of the armband she is ready to go about her day instead of having to take extra time to put her case on again.

She is able to use her iPod just fine inside the armband which is nice because there are other armband on the market that are near impossible to use. The headphones we love Aleratec makes a great product that my husband really enjoys reviewing. Well made products that stand up to the test of time and use, even by our children and that is a lot said because with these headphones at least they lose them before they break and don't work any longer. Now if only I can get them to stop losing the headphones I will be all set.

The headphones are easy to set up with your blue tooth, no guessing. Life is easier when you have products that work well and do what they say they will.

You can find the bluetooth headphones and armband combo on Amazon.
