Parents and teachers should prioritize mental math enhancement for children aged 7-8 because it lays a crucial foundation for their future learning and problem-solving abilities. At this developmental stage, children's cognitive functions are highly adaptable, making it an optimal period to strengthen their numerical fluency and mental agility.

Firstly, mental math bolsters a child's understanding of number sense, allowing them to grasp the relationships between numbers, recognize patterns, and develop efficient problem-solving strategies. This foundational knowledge is essential for tackling more complex mathematical concepts and operations in higher grades.

Secondly, proficiency in mental math helps build confidence and reduces anxiety around math. When children realize they can solve problems quickly and accurately in their heads, they become more comfortable and engaged during math activities, fostering a positive attitude towards learning.

Furthermore, mental math encourages critical thinking and enhances memory skills. It stimulates the brain, promoting mental discipline and sharpened concentration, which are valuable across all academic subjects.

Involving young learners in mental math exercises prepares them for real-life scenarios, from budgeting pocket money to making quick estimations while shopping. By emphasizing mental math, parents and teachers equip students with essential tools that contribute to academic success and everyday practicality. This proactive approach nurtures capable, confident, and resourceful individuals ready to face future challenges.
