Have you tried some of the better math related apps?

Like DragonBox's Elements, Algebra and Numbers [1]? Or the ones by DuckDuckMoose, such as MooseMath [2]? KhanAcademy's very first levels might be good as well [3].

With your oldest you might try a game like Junior Catan [4], that than graduates to Catan where you can talk about the probability distribution of the sum of two dice, an essential aspect of Catan.

You could perhaps try a programming language like Scratch. Have a go at some of code.org's "games" [5] and perhaps even MIT app inventor's with your oldest? [6]
