*We will repeat this event during India morning hours later!
Math Fun For Kids℠ is for kids to THINK, and SOLVE the Open-Ended / Open-Response Math Problems and then COLLABORATE, and ADAPT the solution(s) . This is neither a math competition nor preparation for any competitive exam. This event is to provide an opportunity for kids to think critically on their own, and learn alternate solutions from other kids.

Around 20 students from the USA, UK, India, and other countries participated in this event. In addition to school kids we also had few college students in today's event. We had great participation, wonderful discussion, and learning! We are amazed and thrilled by the enthusiasm from kids. We appreciate all the kids for their patience and for staying the entire duration of the event!
