Fractions games for children
Fractions are where many children first feel maths get harder — so a clear, visual, unhurried approach really matters. Fraction Links helps children connect a fraction to what it actually represents, building the understanding that equivalence, comparing and adding fractions all depend on.
About Fractions games
Making fractions make sense
A fraction is simply a way of describing equal parts of a whole. Children who picture that — half of a pizza, a quarter of a group — find the rules far easier than children who only memorise procedures. Fraction Links keeps that meaning front and centre.
Building towards harder work
Once children are secure with what fractions mean, they are ready for equivalent fractions, comparing sizes, and later adding and subtracting. Getting the foundation right early prevents the confusion that often appears in upper primary and early secondary maths.
What your child will practise
- Understanding a fraction as equal parts of a whole
- Recognising and comparing simple fractions
- Connecting fractions to real sharing and grouping
- Preparing for equivalent fractions and fraction arithmetic
Designed for children ready to move beyond whole numbers into parts and sharing.
