My question - is this sufficient to make Dr Mike's Math Games for Kids notable by Wikipedia's standards?

As you are no doubt aware this is a borderline case. In my personal opinion the site satisfies the criteria described in
WP:WEB, and
WP:GNG – although in both cases not by a comfortable margin. I am personally less convinced that such an article is of much benefit to the encyclopedia, but I have bookmarked the site and may (irrationally) change my mind after having tried some of the games with my little daughter. :)

PS: Just on the off-chance that you are not aware of it, see
WP:COI.

Thanks. I'm well aware of
Conflict of interest, though I haven't (yet) read
WP:COI. I'm trying to tread carefully here :-)
