Everybody knows the original Blasternaut is Max. Take a look back at his first adventures in the films showing in the Math Academy’s Ready Room. Better yet, grab some popcorn and make a movie night out of it! It’ll be like looking through an old photo album, but better, because it’s filled with action packed adventures in space!

Max’s debut on the big screen

Ready Room? Ready!

You and your kids may not be able to recognize him right away, but you’ll see how much Max has grown up since becoming the Blaster that he is today. Do you recognize anyone else? That’s right, Galactic Commander is right by his side in the films too! It’s a good thing everyone has had time to get to know each other and become well acquainted. Your kids probably know her so well that they just call her GC now.

What do you think of the films? Do you remember when your kid started becoming a Blaster like Max? Let us know how long you all have been fans and playing Math Blaster for!

Blasters to the Rescue!

One day, Max and GC were blasting through some menacing math problems, when GC suddenly needed some help. She asked Max for some tips, but he wasn’t quite sure how to answer her question. Can Max count on your kid’s Blasters to help him out? The safety of the Spaceport depends on it, so its time to work together with your blasters. Here is the problem GC got from Mission Control. Have your kids take a shot at finding the correct answer!

Max is calling on the help of all Blasters to solve GC’s problem. Are you the star who will shine?

Space Cadet: How many space seconds in a space minute?
Blasternaut: 60
Space Cadet: How many space minutes in a space hour?
Blasternaut: 60
Space Cadet: Good, now for a hard one, how many space seconds in a space year?
Blasternaut: I need GC and Max’s help!

How many space seconds are in a space year? GC and Max need you and your kids to help! Think you’ve got the right answer? Leave a comment below with the right answer with details and GC and Max will reward you with 500 credits for helping them with their math problems!
