Danica McKellar might just save you during quarantine. She not only has homeschooling tips, but she is currently holed up in Canada with her family, filming a Hallmark Christmas movie which will no doubt brighten up your holidays. Yes, Danica was Winnie Cooper on the iconic television show, The Wonder Years. Yes, she was in The West Wing. But did you know this momma is also a New York Times bestselling author, internationally-recognized mathematician and advocate for math education? Danica has authored 10 math books, with her most recent release being The Times Machine!: Learn Multiplication and Division. . . Like, Yesterday! She’s even got a mathematical theorem named after her!
In this mom chat with Hilaria and Daphne, Danica gives homeschooling advice to parents who are new to it, since she's been doing it for years with her 10-year-old son, Draco. She also discusses her passion for mathematics and how it actually gave her confidence. Plus, she talks about her goal to pass on that confidence to other young girls by making math more relatable in her book—and why it's cool to be smart!
