How about solving IQ puzzles?
Relate maths to real life. Make the questions interesting.
Eg. Give her some money, go shopping with her. Buy the things, and ask her to add up the cost with a piece of paper or mentally.
Ask her to cut a cake into 2/4/8 pieces and teach her fractions.

Try to find a book about the funny mathematics or try to link some that she loves with mathematics - for example if she love pictures tell him about proportion or saw her same picture make with numbers. Well I know that it not means mathematics but determine her to became conscious that many things around us means mathematics means numbers probably she hate mathematics because she consider that it is a rigid science demonstrate that it is not true for example tell her about the Alice in wonderland about many hidden signification of this story Tell her that Lewis Carroll was a great mathematician but he loved vary much the children's and he wrote a such beautifully story for them.
Well I wrote all this thinking that your daughter it is a little girl
I hope that you understand the idea and my language because I am a stranger (Romanian)

Make it fun for her. You didn't mention her age, so some of these ideas might not be appropriate. If she's in elementary school and is studying money, take her shopping and show her how to count money, add and subtract it, etc. This works well for older children learning about decimal points too. For young kids learning to add, subtract, multiply, divide -- use M&Ms as counters to demonstrate the problems, and let her eat them only after she's done her work. If she's older and working on algebra, see if you can get her a "study-buddy" -- a friend or neighbor who's good at and enjoys math to help her out. It's all about making the math interesting and realistic! Good luck!

First u forgot to mention what age she is - 2nd there are mathematical games for children - 3rd if u can spare time to teach her yourself will be more appropriate as children tend to love their parents and would listen to them better than tutors. Last but not least if u can show the magic involved in maths she would love this subject. I am a maths teacher and this was my way of getting my childrens interest in maths.

How old is your daughter? Age and interest vary alot. What you want to do isn't necessarily have her interested in math but help her to gain "number sense", like common sense only related to numbers. It really helps to know that 9 is more than 5 and to feel it, not just have it memorized. To understand clock math (time, adding time, how long has it been?), to understand kitchen math (measurements are important), measure her heighth and yours (mark it on a wall and keep measuring), measure distance with a ruler, have her count change in coins (or make change if she can). Anything dealing with numbers so she begins to appreciate the power of that kind of knowledge and that it is valuable.

My son hated Math until I found this great way for him to learn his times tables. It's called "Multi Flyer" They have a game set up to make it fun to learn the tables. My son can't get enough of it, and he has learned all his times tables in a couple of weeks, and as a result loves math more in school. Here is the link. http://www.gdbdp.com/multiflyer/
Good luck!

well you could take her to the library and help her with any books that are in the library pretaining to the subject. sit down with her one on one with her. maybe you can think of a way to make it fun for her like make songs out of it. depending on her age. or you can try to find a good tutor for her.
