Story Times: Operation Blustery Day

What would you do if you see a little critter being scared of its surrounding on a stormy day? Would you care to provide it shelter?

Well, I would definitely try my level best to provide it food and shelter because in urban areas, animals like dog, cat, etc., are solely depended on humans in many ways. Similarly, the little bunny on this site is desperate to get into its shelter and that also on a very stormy day.

Operation Blustery Day is an animated website with a twist, and is not so simple! You have to solve the math word problems. The more you solve them the closer this cute little bunny gets to its home. And if you fail, the winds are so strong that it becomes too difficult for the bunny to even take a step. When you solve all the math word problems, you see the bunny get into its shelter and wave to you gladly.

Did you get it? The whole idea of the site is to let you know how to solve the math word problems without giving a typical boring notebook appearance so that you use your grey cells in a more creative and fun way. The animation is colourful and well-done, and keeps one active and eager to lead the bunny safely to its shelter. However, while solving the problems you might want to have some more characters in the animation so that the operation could get more challenging but, sadly, there aren’t any more characters.

Once the bunny is safely home, you can start over again and the good thing is the next roll of the word problems have new questions to keep you using your grey cells without getting bored.

The site doesn’t require registration and there are no ads. So are you ready to lead this little bunny to its home on a stormy day?
