Learn the upper times tables in less than an hour with this non-consumable program that can be used by the entire family! Times Tales uses simple visual mnemonic stories to trigger the memory when multiplication facts are presented. Characters remain consistent and meet in simple, easily memorable stories containing hidden answers. Abstract upper multiplication facts become quick and simple to recall. Children view this program of more of a game than any kind of multiplication drill. Believe it or not, they have FUN in the process.

Great success with learning disabilities too!

Homeschoolers' Comments

Cathy Duffy says, "If you have children who struggle learning their times tables, you might find this program a godsend."

"Thank YOU for such a great product. It is amazing how well it works!" Jeannie Fulbright, author of Apologia Elementary Science Curriculum

"Thank you for your wonderful Times Tales program. My 10-year-old son knew less than half of the upper times tables before we received your program--and those he completed with frustration. It took him only 30 minutes with Times Tales to KNOW THEM ALL!! Thanks again," Teresa

"I received your product recently and all I can say is UNBELIEVEABLE! My kids took less than the one hour to memorize the facts! This type of learning reminds me of a book I once read that teaches people to use "word pictures" for effective communication. This is very similar. The pictures "stick" in their minds so well. I even now think about the stories when I am reviewing with the kids. My 1st grader also now knows his 6,7,8,and 9 multiplication facts. Wonderful tool for a great price!" Claudia from Illinois

"I am the one who contacted you about a return policy in case this didn't work with my boys because I have struggled with all kinds of games, cards, worksheets...blah blah blah and they just couldn't get it. I looked at this about a year and a half ago and thought this is silly; even after reading the testimonies and I passed it by. When I came across it again, I thought, oh yeah, I remember this. I looked it over again and closed the site. But, not only was I skeptical, I was desperate! On a whim, I came back and ordered it. It was a few days after I got it before we sat down with it but all it took was a little over an hour with both boys, ages 8 and 10 and they DO ACTUALLY know their multiplication tables.......even verbally!!!!!!!!!!!! They even "complained" that it was babyish and didn't want to do it ( which is probably why it took longer) but when they made the connection when we got to the flash cards, their faces lightened up and they got exited! What a joy it is to see the proud look on their faces as they realized they knew the multiplication tables!

This program is for real and it WORKS!!!!!!!!!! I am still astounded by the simplicity of it and that it does actually work. I just keep thinking how much farther along in math we would be if I had ordered this the first time I looked at it." ~Name Withheld

Times Tales Deluxe with Division
Times Tales teaches the most difficult Times Tables (Upper 3s, 4s, 6s, 7s, 8s and 9s) to your child in about an hour! This program is perfect for the homeschooler, small group or tutoring. This deluxe program then applies all the same stories to division facts. Nothing new to learn!

It is a creative, innovative program that makes it fun and easy to memorize multiplication facts. User feedback indicates that most students are able to learn the facts in our Original Program in one 45 minute session. Times Tales uses cute, simple stories to provide students with a "memory peg", allowing them to quickly recall otherwise abstract facts.

This Deluxe program includes a two-part flipchart. The first part consists of the original Times Tales used to teach multiplication. The second half is the division portion of the flipchart. Once your student has mastered the multiplication program, they can apply their new skills to division, using the very same stories! This is an ideal way to teach the correlation between multiplication and division.

Program Includes:
2 Part Story Flipchart
Trigger Memory & Regular Flashcards (multiplication & division)
Roll 'Em Cube Game
Easy Instruction Manual
Memory Story Discussion Guide
2 Multiplication Practice Tests
2 Division Practice Tests
2 Multiplication Test Challenges
2 Division Test Challenges

*Though it can be adapted to be used by all ages, the average age is six to twelve years old. Generally, these facts are learned in a third grade elementary math program. We get several emails asking if this program can be used with older children, or even adults. Certainly! While the Memory Story Guide is geared toward younger children, you would simply adapt in when working with older students. They will generally work through the stories much more quickly and with less discussion. Simply remind them that, though it may seem "babyish", it is simply a memorization tool that will work for anyone.
