Trigger Memory Systems - Times Tales & Clean 'n Flip Charts

Posted in Homeschool Curriculum and Product Reviews

Having trouble teaching the multiplication facts to your children? What about basic housecleaning - have you been looking for a way to get your children involved but just don't know where to start? Then, look no further than Trigger Memory Systems - they have JUST what you need!

Each member of the Homeschool Crew will be receiving a set of Times Tales for review, as well as the 3 Clean 'n Flip Charts....

Times Tales is a creative, innovative mnemonic-based program that makes it fun and easy to memorize the upper multiplication facts. Times Tales uses cute, simple stories to provide students with a "memory peg", allowing them to quickly recall otherwise abstract facts.

- Covers the most difficult to memorize times tables: 3x6,3x7,3x8,3x9,4x6,4x7,4x8,4x9,6x6,6x7,6x8,6x9,
7x7,7x8,7x9,8x8,8x9,9x9

- FAST - most children learn in two 45 minute sessions!

- Non-consumable - can be used by the whole family.

- FUN - kids love this learning method and ask for more!

The Clean 'n Flip charts are wonderful tools for teaching your children basic cleaning habits. They are available in 3 versions:

- Zone Cleaning which focuses on Living Room/Entry, Kitchen, and Bathroom

- Bedroom Cleaning which, obviously, focuses on the bedroom, and

- Laundry which teaches children, step-by-step, how to do the laundry on their own.

Kristin N says: It’s really a fun & easy chore system my kids love!

Tajuana says: If you are having difficulty teaching your child their multiplication facts, this may be what you're looking for. It's even good for teaching kids with learning disabilities.

Gina M says: I must say that these are some of the best parenting tools on the market! They truly work and even make the work fun for kids

These are FABULOUS products! The chore charts are great, but even more, the Times Tales is a product I have already told a TON of moms about. This weekend the kids made their visiting grandparents "ask E. (the five-year-old) hard times questions!!!" to show off their developing skills. Not many products I BEG parents to look at - this is one.

The chore charts are GREAT, but Times Tales is through the roof awesome. A product I've already recommended to A TON of moms. The kids are showing off their skills - and the greatest testimony is 8-year-old dear daughter, who told me this week, "Mommy, math is SOO much faster because I know the answers!

Dec. 16, 2008 - Zone Cleaning Charts

Posted by Supermomof5kids

The Cleaning Charts are a fantastic resource for busy families. My kids really enjoyed the independence of reading the chart, completing the chore and checking it off without my help. This is great for breaking down jobs into manageable chunks for little ones needing household chore training. Love it!

LOVE both these products. I highly recommend them to anyone asking. Just don't spill milk on the charts and forget to wipe off every single page....they tend to "glue" themselves together. Bummer LOL

I'd already bought the room-cleaning and zone-cleaning flip charts. Hadn't seen the laundry chart or Times Tales, though. What great products!

Times Tales is especially helpful for those who struggle with rote memorization.
