Christopher Danielson has a way of making math feel more human, more joyful, and more deeply connected to the curiosity we all carry. In this episode, we talk about the math stories that shaped us, the importance of teachers doing real math, and what it means to truly listen to children’s thinking. Christopher also shares the heart behind Math on a Stick, his playful State Fair initiative that invites families to explore shapes, patterns, and wonder together.

This conversation left me feeling hopeful about what’s possible in math education—and I think it will do the same for you.
