Mental math practice, particularly in addition, is crucial for children aged 6-7 as it cultivates foundational math skills that support their academic growth and everyday problem-solving. At this age, children's cognitive abilities are rapidly developing, making it an ideal time to enhance their numerical fluency. By engaging in mental math, students build confidence in their mathematical capabilities, which reduces anxiety and fosters a positive attitude toward learning.

Moreover, mental math improves memory and concentration, as children learn to retain and manipulate numbers mentally. This skill not only aids in addition but also lays the groundwork for more complex mathematical concepts like subtraction, multiplication, and addition of larger numbers in the future.

Parents and teachers should prioritize mental math practices because they can enhance a child’s critical thinking and increase their performance in school. These practices also help children make connections between math concepts and real-life scenarios, such as budgeting or measuring.

Additionally, the skills acquired through mental math practice contribute to lifelong learning habits; students who are comfortable with numbers tend to be more persistent in problem-solving. Supporting these practices establishes a strong mathematical foundation, ensuring children are equipped for future academic challenges.
