Pizzeria Pie

The best way to improve math skills is to apply them in a fun, stimulating setting - just like the Pizzeria Pie! In this dynamic environment that replicates a real pizza restaurant, kids can work with pattern sequence, fractions, measurements, number value and money calculations as they make and serve pizza to pretend restaurant customers. Be ready to 'taste' the best pizza of your life!

What can you do in Pizzeria Pie?

• Be seated at a table and ask your child to become your waiter/waitress!
• Spin the Pizza Wheel and make a pizza using only the ingredients that you land on!
• Use the Pizza Pie Activity Cards to get ideas of how to play in this exhibit, focusing on specific math skills for kids of all ages.
• Stand at the host/hostess station and seat and hand out menus to your customers. 
• Are you a chef-wannabe? Grab an apron and start filling those pizza orders in our pizza kitchen stocked with pretend pizza dough, cheese, sauce and lots of different toppings. You can almost smell the pizza cooking as you slide it into our old-fashioned brick oven!
• Share your pizza with your friends or family and problem solve how many slices each person gets to share equally.

Parent Tips:

There are lots of ways to help your child play to learn the Pizzeria Pie. You'll find aprons for both adults and children to help you get involved. Pizza play is a great way to practice fair share, fraction, and percentage math concepts with your child!
