You can easily use a set of playing cards to help check table knowledge. Firstly remove the Jacks, 
Queens and Kings. Then shuffle the pack and divide them equally between you and your child. Both of you then reveal your top cards and the first person who multiplies them together and says the answer keeps the two cards and adds them to the bottom of their pile. The winner is the first person to get all the cards, or who has the most after a given time.

I really like this maths site. I was in your maths group last year and it was really fun, my favourite things were the torture tables because I usually got them right, but if I didn't you would always give me a house point. I think that it's a really good way to get children to learn their times tables more often and hopefully get better marks in maths.
