This website has fantastic math games for children grades 1-8. There are 25 games that focus on a variety of areas including: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc.
Students need to play the games in order unless they they have passwords to move ahead. The math arcade has great graphics for kids and the games are actually fun to play.

I like to have my kids use this website in the computer lab when they finish a project.
