My seven year old twin girls are struggling with understanding
the concept of multiplying single numbers. I have tried
memorization, grouping and relating objects at home. They do not
get it when it comes to most of the odd numbers. I would like to
know what else i can do at home to make them understand 3x12 is
the same as 12 x3 which is the same as saying 12 plus 12 plus 12
