This fun activity encourages your child to develop their skills in not only taking measurements, but also in working with the measurements themselves.

Introduce your fourth or fifth grader to volume by having him build rectangular prisms, and then count each sugar cube to check his volume calculations.

Whatever is stacked in your cupboard can be used to help your child learn how to compare fractions and decimals. A great hands-on math lesson!

Have your child observe, measure and record the amount of space objects occupy, and you'll have an inside space explorer on your hands in no time!
