Free Times Tables Game — Practice Multiplication 1 to 10

Mushroom Tables

This free times tables game helps kids ages 6 to 9 master multiplication. Choose any times table from 1 to 10, tap on mushrooms to expand them across the grid, and discover that multiplication is just repeated addition.

How To Play

• Choose times table

• Tap on mushrooms to expand and go over the times table

• Make sure that they have space around to expand

Learning Objectives

• Going over all the times tables

• Students should realize multiplications are a series of repeated additions.

Target :

perfect for 1st and 2nd graders learning their multiplication facts — and a fun way for older kids to refresh the tables they find tricky.

All Times Tables, 1 to 10

Your child should already understand addition. If addition still feels new, try the addition game first.

This game covers every multiplication table from 1× through 10×. Pick the table your child is working on right now:

2 times table — the easiest, doubling numbers (2×1=2, 2×2=4, 2×3=6...)
3 times table — counting by threes (3×1=3, 3×2=6, 3×3=9...)
4 times table — doubling the 2 times table (4×1=4, 4×2=8, 4×3=12...)
5 times table — always ends in 0 or 5 (5×1=5, 5×2=10, 5×3=15...)
6 times table — one of the trickier ones (6×1=6, 6×2=12, 6×3=18...)
7 times table — famously the hardest (7×1=7, 7×2=14, 7×3=21...)
8 times table — doubling the 4 times table (8×1=8, 8×2=16, 8×3=24...)
9 times table — has a neat finger trick (9×1=9, 9×2=18, 9×3=27...)
10 times table — just add a zero (10×1=10, 10×2=20, 10×3=30...)

How the Game Helps Kids Learn

Most kids memorize times tables by rote — reciting them out loud until they stick. That works, but it's boring and doesn't help children understand why multiplication works. This game takes a different approach: each mushroom that expands represents one addition, so kids see that 3×4 is really just 3+3+3+3. Once they understand the mechanics, memorization comes naturally.

Which Times Table Is Hardest?

For most kids, the 7 times table and the 8 times table are the trickiest. They don't have obvious patterns (unlike the 2s, 5s, or 10s), and the products (14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70 for the 7s) don't follow an easy rule. The good news: these are the ones kids most need to practice — and games make repetition fun.

Tips for Parents and Teachers

Start with the easy tables first: 2s, 5s, and 10s give kids quick wins and build confidence.
Practice in short sessions: 5–10 minutes per day beats 30 minutes once a week.
Mix the tables once each is learned: reciting just the 4 times table in order is easy; recalling "what is 4×7" out of order is the real skill.
Use the patterns: point out that the 9 times table digits always sum to 9 (9, 18, 27 → 1+8=9, 2+7=9...), and that the 4 table is just the 2 table doubled.

When Is Your Child Ready?

Most children learn times tables in 1st through 3rd grade (ages 6 to 9). Before starting, they should be comfortable with addition (try the addition game first if not), since multiplication is built on the idea of repeated addition.
