Math App Saturday (#18 Cash Cow)

It's Saturday and time to mention another fun math app:

I first read about Cash Cow lite on Teach Science and Math. I downloaded the free version and DS8 started playing.Within a few minutes, I made my second math app purchase. Ever. We bought the full version of Cash Cow.

My son's description: "You add coins together to make bigger amounts: .05, .10, .25, 1.00. If you get to higher levels you can add glowing coins together to get more money. When you're done with a level you get to buy things for your farm."

It's a great little game for identifying coin values and putting various combinations together to produce higher valued coins. The game hasn't lost it's intrigue after accompanying us to a lot of basketball games. I, too, find it fun. We've definitely gotten our $.99 out of it.

Check out other math apps I've reviewed. The majority are free.
