ames are such an awesome way to make learning fun. Whenever my kids are engaged, they learn so much more, as opposed to being forced to do that plain black and white drill to s-‘kill’ worksheet. Apart from creating resources, I am also constantly sourcing out other educational activities that are readily available and easily accessible on the Internet. There is an abundance of educational games that are free to play, ready to click and go. However, sometimes in the rush of the crazy teacher life, sourcing games of such educational value can be a stretch when time and stress levels reach high points. That’s why, this week, I’m sharing with you a fun collection of free to play multiplication games that you can bookmark and have ready at your fingertips to assign to a student or your class. I’m pretty picky at the games I choose, there’s lots of free stuff on the web, but I’ve weeded through them to share with you some of the best!
Please note the following:
At the time of this blog post all of the external links worked and were fine to play on the websites referred. Overtime there is the possibility that some of these links might ‘break,’ if this happens, please let me know and I will fix.
The links for these games will take you to another website. I’ve mentioned the creators in each description, and linked the game to where I originally found the content.
Some games may take some time to load depending on your Internet speed.

This game is less forgiving than the Fish Shop game, get the answer wrong once and the customer leaves unhappy. Like the Mummy Marathon, I like that for this one you can select a fact family to practice in a game.
Each time a level is complete, the restaurant receives an upgrade. The number of multiplication problems per customer increases with each level, and more ingredient options are added to the kitchen.
