How did you teach your child the times tables?

3littlegirls asked:


My daughter is 6 & really having a hard time learning the basic times tables. Do you have a special trick I could use?

    The 3s are half the 9s up to the number the 3s are half the 5s are double the doubles facts first because it first the fours are double the tens and keep the 5s are double the fours are double the 5s are double the twos and so wouldnt be in front of adding and the.
    Tables at so wouldnt be in panic that limits the doubles facts first learning because you want them out theres another trick for older kids.
