Mad minute multiplication practice, one minute at a time
Your child has a mad minute at school, and the clock makes the facts disappear. In Pet Rocket every round lasts exactly one minute, so your child gets used to the clock while flying their own pet to the Moon. With the Moon Pass you then see which facts slow them down.
Why the clock makes facts disappear
Many kids know 7 × 8 when there is time to think. With a timer running, any fact they still have to count out costs seconds, and a few slow facts can wreck the whole minute. That is when you see which facts are truly memorized.
Every round is a one-minute drill
A game has two rounds of one minute, with multiplication, division or both. There is one problem on the screen at a time and nothing else to distract. After each round your child sees how many they got right and their accuracy. No grades, just a game they want to beat.
Choose all the tables, only the 6s to 9s, or your own set, for example just the 7 times table and the 8 times table. Every table has its own page with all the facts and a trick.
Race a friend with the same problems
Does your child want to beat a friend or a sibling? Send a challenge: whoever opens the link gets exactly the same problems, so the scores are a fair race.
From speed to the facts that slow them down
With the Moon Pass you see the accuracy for each table and your child’s hardest facts. The Multiplication Coach brings those facts back more often, so practice goes to the ones that cost seconds. You can also print a worksheet of your child’s hard facts, with an answer key.

Frequently asked questions
What is a mad minute?
A mad minute is a short timed drill used in many classrooms: as many facts as possible in one minute. Teachers use it to see which facts kids know by heart. Ask your child’s teacher how they use it in class.
How many problems should my child finish in a minute?
That depends on the grade and the teacher. More important than a number is that your child answers without counting. Speed comes by itself once the facts are memorized.
How often should my child practice?
A two-minute game every day works better than one long session before the drill. Start a few days ahead.
