Parents and teachers should prioritize mental arithmetic addition and subtraction for children ages 4-9 because it serves as a foundational skill crucial for academic and life success. Mastering these concepts helps children build number sense and improves their confidence in handling math. Early engagement fosters cognitive development and enhances critical thinking abilities.

Moreover, mental arithmetic teaches children to process information quickly and improves their problem-solving skills. As they practice, children develop logical reasoning abilities that extend beyond math and can benefit their overall learning across subjects. It also encourages number fluency, making complex mathematics less intimidating as they progress into higher grades.

Incorporating fun activities such as games, songs, and real-life scenarios keeps children engaged and motivates them to practice regularly. As they grow more proficient, children experience a sense of accomplishment, leading to a positive attitude towards math.

Lastly, proficiency in mental arithmetic is essential for everyday tasks such as budgeting, shopping, and time management, equipping children with essential life skills. By emphasizing mental arithmetic early on, parents and teachers play a vital role in ensuring children succeed in their educational journeys and beyond.
