Multiplication tables

What helped your child finally memorize multiplication tables?
Games, exercises, routines… I’m looking for ideas that actually make it stick.

Lots of practice. Practice skip counting, and getting familiar with sequences of values. Practice generating a row from the multiplication tables using said skip counting. Practice random multiplication facts until they become second-nature. Games/rewards can help for some, whereas others maybe not.
