Parents and teachers should place importance on problem-solving skills involving multiplication and division word problems for children ages 3-7 because these skills form a critical foundation for later mathematical understanding. At this early age, children's brains are highly receptive to learning new concepts. Introducing them to multiplication and division in the context of word problems helps them see the practical application of what might otherwise be abstract concepts.

Word problems that involve story-telling can make learning more engaging and relatable, which enhances comprehension and retention. Such problems encourage children to utilize critical thinking and reasoning skills. They learn to break down complex situations into manageable steps, improving their ability to strategize and make decisions. This early practice not only prepares them for higher-level math but also enhances their cognitive flexibility in other problem-solving contexts, extending well beyond formal education.

Moreover, solving these word problems helps children develop confidence in their abilities. It can be rewarding to navigate through a problem and find a solution, boosting their persistence and resilience when facing new challenges. Parents and teachers who foster these skills early, set the groundwork for their children to become competent, independent thinkers and proficient in essential life skills.
