Parents and teachers should care about mental math practice for ages 4-9 because it establishes a strong foundation for future mathematical learning and critical thinking. At this young age, children's brains are exceptionally receptive to new information, and engaging them in mental math exercises helps them to develop quick and accurate calculation skills, boost their number sense, and improve their overall cognitive abilities.

Mental math encourages children to think about numbers flexibly and strategically, promoting problem-solving skills and logical reasoning. This form of math also builds confidence, as children who can solve problems in their heads feel more assured of their abilities. Moreover, using mental math in day-to-day activities demonstrates to children that math is practical and useful, fostering a positive attitude towards the subject and reducing anxiety or aversion associated with math as they grow older.

In addition, mental math develops working memory and attention span, as children need to hold and manipulate numbers mentally. These skills are not only crucial in academic settings but are also valuable life skills. By prioritizing mental math practice, educators and parents ensure that children are equipped with essential tools that support their academic journey and beyond. Hence, this practice is an investment in a child’s overall intellectual growth and confidence.
