Lovevery, the early childhood brand known for transforming the way families play and learn, today announced the launch of The Math Skill Set, a hands-on, screen-free program designed to help children build a better foundation in math. The new offering follows The Reading Skill Set as Lovevery’s second academic program proven to improve test scores and increase motivation through play.

The Math Skill Set from Lovevery builds a strong math foundation for children through hands-on play and real-life math skills. Proven to improve math scores and build confidence in both children and parents. Available now at lovevery.com.
According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress, roughly one in four U.S. fourth graders lacks basic proficiency in math—a gap that research suggests begins forming well before kindergarten.
“Parents know math matters, but it can be a struggle to support it at home. As children advance in school, math gets progressively more difficult. By second grade the teaching accelerates, concepts start stacking, and if a child doesn’t have a solid math foundation, they often can’t keep up,” said Jessica Rolph, Lovevery Cofounder and CEO. “Grounded in research across developmental psychology, cognitive science, and math education, The Math Skill Set is designed to build the foundation children need to feel confident and successfully navigate math concepts as they advance. A strong math foundation isn’t going to come from worksheets or an app on a screen. It happens by making hands-on learning fun, so children want to keep coming back to it. That’s exactly what sets this program apart.”
The Results
The Math Skill Set is proven to improve math scores and build confidence in both children and parents.1 In a six-week, at-home study, 93% of children improved their math scores with just 20 minutes of play per day. Parents reported equally strong outcomes: 100% reported that their child was more enthusiastic and motivated about math after using the program, and 96% felt more prepared to support their child’s math learning at home.
How it Works
The Math Skill Set is built on three core principles:
- Hands-on, screen-free learning. Sensory-focused games and activities encourage children to touch, move, stack, sort, and build their way to real number sense in a way worksheets and apps simply can’t replicate.
- Real-life math skills. The Math Skill Set shows kids that math is both useful and meaningful by integrating math into everyday activities. Children will tell time, sort data, measure objects, and tally up a restaurant bill. They’ll explore financial concepts like saving and spending, and use real tools like an analog watch they can wear.
- A better foundation. When math feels hard, it chips away at confidence. When it feels fun and doable, children stay curious and keep trying. The Math Skill Set begins by introducing counting and early addition and subtraction, before expanding to concepts of place value, money management, and early multiplication and division. With each concept introduced through games and stories rather than drills, it lowers the stakes so math feels playful.
Each part includes 7-9 skill-based games, activities, and storybooks, along with a parent Play Guide, and free access to expert math content through The Lovevery App. Parents gain background knowledge, play tips, and confidence to guide each activity–no teaching expertise required.
