Remember those Saturday morning Education Rock songs of the seventies? Well I do. A cartoon would end and just before or the next program, a cartoon character would begin singing the virtues of 8 or 7 or "My hero, Zero." But even if you haven't lived through them, you might have seen videotapes in stores or even seen the stage play.

For children who need help with math, this tour through the number zoo will be helpful and fun. They can play the various games in the zoo or—if they are very young—they can simply click on the computerized TV and hear the praises of these numbers. Highly recommended.
