New Jersey, or as our witty and whimsical imaginary friend, the Giggle Goblin, refers to it, "New Joy-sey," is one of the smallest states in America, packed tighter than a jar of jelly beans with interesting places to discover and explore. Giggle Goblin likes to think of it as a plump blueberry muffin, crammed with an assortment of delectable sights, sounds, and stories. From the majestic Appalachian Mountains in the west, to the sun-kissed beaches of the Jersey Shore in the east, each corner of the "Garden State" is brimming with a unique flavor of its own! Now, let's not forget the pint-sized Picassos and mini Hemingways who call New Joy-sey home. These imaginative kids are as diverse as the state's landscape, each one a master of their own creative universe. Whether they're penning gripping tales of intergalactic adventures, or painting a picture of the world as seen through their kaleidoscope eyes, these little wordsmiths and artists are not afraid to let their creativity flow as freely as the water in the Delaware River. Our friend, the Giggle Goblin, is particularly smitten with these young scribes. He loves to pop up during their writing activity, peeking over shoulders and cackling with delight at their wonderful tales. He is especially fond of the funny stories, which send him into fits of uncontrollable laughter, causing his round belly to jiggle like a bowl full of rainbow jelly. He often tells them, "In New Joy-sey, the skyscrapers might scrape the sky, but your imaginations, kiddos, reach right up to the stars!"

At ALOHA, we understand that children learn differently and that their brains have two hemispheres – the left and right – which carry out very different functions. The left hemisphere is the logical side, responsible for language, analysis, numeracy, theory and deduction, whilst the right hemisphere is the creative side and encourages perception, emotion, imagination and intuition. Unfortunately, many children fail to integrate the two halves of their brain, which can have a negative impact on their academic progress. That’s why ALOHA has developed the Mental Math system, to help children bring the two sides of their brain together and make the most of their learning potential. At ALOHA, we understand that every child is different and that it is essential to encourage them to use both sides of their brain. Our Mental Math system has been designed to integrate the two hemispheres of your child’s brain, so that they can make the most of their learning abilities.
