Level 2: Share the Love Goodies! (Ages 6-8)

Multiplication isn't just about numbers, it's about sharing too! 

Today, we'll use Love Goodies Boom Cards (virtual lollipops) or some real lollipops (remember, grown-up supervision!) to play a fun sharing game.

Problem Time! We'll see a multiplication problem like 4 x 3 on the screen (or have 12 real lollipops).
