I've been using Exam Ninja books for around five years to help my nine-year-old daughter with her schooling. We buy a set for each year and my daughter works her way through them, a little each day, with my assistance. These are an excellent resource for boosting a child's learning journey and supporting the school curriculum.

About the Maths Activity Book for Ages 5-6 (Year 1)

If your Year 1 child is just starting their maths journey, the Maths Activity Book for Ages 5-6 (Year 1) from CGP gives them a cheerful, confidence-building way to practise counting, shapes, telling the time, mental arithmetic and problem solving. Every page is designed to feel friendly rather than formal, so five- and six-year-olds stay curious and motivated while they work through the English National Curriculum topics that underpin Key Stage 1.

Colourful page showing number and word exercises with tractors and hens
Fun activities turn numbers into words and back again, with tractor puzzles and an extra challenge featuring egg-counting hens

Each section mixes clear explanations with colourful illustrations and step-by-step tasks, so your child grasps one idea before moving on to the next. The book includes full answers at the back, letting you check work quickly at the kitchen table without second-guessing yourself. Whether you're reinforcing classroom learning or filling a rainy afternoon, the layout keeps sessions short and manageable—perfect for wriggly learners who need variety and a sense of progress.

Dinosaur-themed counting and problem-solving exercises with party scene
Dinosaurs at a party help children practise counting by attributes and complete sentences with colours and numbers

By the time your child finishes, they will have built the number confidence and problem-solving toolkit they need for the rest of Year 1 and beyond. Every exercise is tied to the curriculum, so you know the time spent is genuinely useful—and because the tone stays light and the tasks stay varied, practice feels less like a chore and more like a game. CGP's activity book is available now as a physical workbook, ready to be posted straight to your door.

This write-in workbook suits any Year 1 pupil who benefits from extra practice or wants to get ahead during school holidays. The combination of colourful pages, straightforward explanations and built-in answers means you can support your child's learning without stress, even if maths isn't your strong suit.

  • Covers counting, shapes, telling the time, mental arithmetic and problem solving for Year 1 (ages 5–6)
  • Colourful, engaging layout with friendly characters and step-by-step tasks to build confidence
  • Full answers included at the back for quick, stress-free checking
