But what you wrote, I just got to try it!
Would you believe I used to tutor math as a youngster and then did teach math for awhile [before I went into my medical career.] We laughed so much in my classes one principal just shook his head and walked away. It all depends on how you look at it ... and sometimes, the words you use. "Math" is an almost no-no. "Playing around with things" is almost always a good-to-go.
Having fun is a MUST.
