Zeno Blog
Greetings!
With the input of our partners and families, we recently updated our mission to spark joy and inspire a love of math in young children and families through racial equity, family engagement, and play, all centered in the experiences of communities of color.
A Look Ahead
- Created safer avenues to get Zeno's games directly to families in need.
- We pivoted our work to virtual settings. Check out our YouTube page to see some of the activities.
- Relaunched our website to include resources for families and provide more ways for you to connect with Zeno.
- Defined our path forward with a new strategic plan that you can view here.
- Launched the sale of Zeno Games in Washington State. Purchase a game for your loved one in our game store today.
Thank you again to the many hands and hearts that contributed to the success of our last program year. We look forward to our next math-powered program year!

Mathy Moments
Zeno started our Circle Time series as a response to the stay-at-home order and COVID-19 pandemic. Our goal? To provide families and early learners a fun and engaging way to incorporate math play into their routines at home! Each month we post a new video focused on a different math concept or theme on social media for our community and partners to share with families. Check out our Spring Circle Times below:
