Understanding quantity addition and subtraction is crucial for children aged 6-8 because it lays the foundation for their mathematical skills and overall cognitive development. During these formative years, children begin to grasp the concepts of numbers and their relationships, setting the stage for more complex mathematical operations in the future. Mastery of addition and subtraction helps them develop critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, skills that are essential not just in math, but across all subjects and daily life.

Furthermore, these fundamental operations enhance children's number sense, enabling them to make sense of quantities in practical contexts, whether it’s in measuring ingredients for a recipe, planning a budget, or scheduling their time. When parents and teachers focus on helping children understand these concepts, they foster a positive attitude towards math, reducing anxiety and increasing confidence in their abilities.

Additionally, strong addition and subtraction skills are vital in understanding broader mathematical principles taught in advanced grades, such as multiplication and division. Supporting children through engaging activities, games, and real-world applications ensures they not only retain these skills but also appreciate their relevance, ultimately leading to lifelong learning and success in mathematics.
