It's great for making worksheets to go over the problems your child needs more

The program is called "Multiplication Flashcards" and is a great tool for the
homeschool parent to use to help teach the child that is learning his/her
multiplication tables. The interface is simple and geared for the very young
child. The program can be controlled by using either a mouse or entirely by the
keyboard; making it fully accessible to children with physical handicaps. Last
year I sent the program out as an email attachment to over 250 home school
families that requested it after I posted it on a homeschool discussion board.
