Times Trial — multiplication flash cards
Pick your tables, then race the clock — or a ghost of your own best run, or a sibling's. A per-card timer can be tightened a quarter of a second at a time, and the facts you keep missing become their own practice deck.
Play now →Spelling and sight words
The Dolch lists, graded by age. Each word is read out and typed from memory rather than copied off the screen — or, for a reader who isn’t spelling yet, heard and picked out of four. Same profiles, same records, same clock.
Learn more →Typing race
Start on the home row and work up to real sentences with capitals and commas. Every word is a split, so you race a rival’s pace word by word rather than being handed a score at the end.
Play now →Your own word lists
Paste in this week’s spellings and they become a deck like any other, with their own records. A list can be saved as a file and passed to another family, who get their own copy of it.

Times tables
Every table, with the full set of facts and tips for remembering them.

There is no account to make and no data to hand over, because there is nowhere to hand it to — this is a static site with no server behind it. Every profile, race and record lives in your browser's own storage. That also means clearing site data clears progress, so there's aBack up progress button on the player screen that saves a file you keep.
Adding the site to your home screen is worth doing on an iPad: it makes the game work offline, and it stops Safari clearing saved progress after a week of not playing.
