How It Works

See what Crazy 8s is all about — straight from the kids and coaches who love it.

Crazy 8s is an after-school math club like no other. Any elementary school can launch this program to bring kids together in person over math. 

Unlike competitive clubs that appeal to a select few, our activities – like Glow-in-the-Dark Geometry and Beach Ball Party – can appeal to any kid. We’re making math club the cool thing to do!

Kit Contents

We offer 16 activities for Grades K-2 and 3-5, packaged in two 8-activity kits called Seasons 1 and 2. 

Our kits provide most of the materials plus math-y take-home prizes for up to 16 kids. Coaches need to provide a few supplies like scrap paper and scissors. To make Crazy 8s the best it can be, our online Coaches’ Area includes step-by-step directions, how-to videos and other resources. Click here to see our kit preview. 

Honor Code

All Crazy 8s partners must apply online, then do a brief phone call with one of our Crazy 8s Ambassadors to review our Honor Code:

  • Clubs must meet on a weekly schedule either before or after school ideally for 8 consecutive weeks. We’ll also allow clubs to meet twice weekly, or daily for a 1-week camp.
  • Each club should include at least 12 kids, but no more than 16 kids.
  • Kids must be grouped Grades K-2, Grades 1-3 or Grades 3-5. Clubs can serve a single grade or a pair of grades within those ranges, but they should not be expanded beyond them.

Cost-Sharing Contribution

As part of our charitable mission, Bedtime Math heavily subsidizes the cost of the kit, valued at more than $400.

Crazy 8s kits are available for a contribution of $180 for one kit, or $360 for both. That’s just $1.50 per kid per week. Federal Title I and Title IV funds can be used for this educational resource. Email us at crazy8s@bedtimemath.org for our W-9.
