Understanding numerical values is crucial for children aged 3-5, as it lays the foundation for their mathematical skills and cognitive development. At this early age, children begin to explore numbers and develop number sense, which is the ability to understand and manipulate numbers in everyday contexts.

For parents and teachers, fostering this understanding is significant because it enhances a child's problem-solving abilities and logical reasoning. Engaging young children with numbers through playful activities, such as counting objects, playing number games, or exploring basic addition and subtraction, makes learning enjoyable and interactive. This playful learning not only reinforces numerical concepts but also promotes social skills as children collaborate with peers or family members.

Furthermore, strong numerical understanding in early childhood is linked to future academic success. Research shows that children who have a solid grasp of numbers before entering school are more likely to excel in mathematics later on. Encouraging numerical literacy at a young age builds confidence, supports cognitive flexibility, and nurtures a positive attitude toward learning. As such, parents and teachers play a vital role in providing stimulating environments where children can explore and celebrate the world of numbers, ensuring they reach their full potential.
