Problem-solving practice is crucial for children aged 7-9 because it plays a vital role in their cognitive development and prepares them for real-life challenges. At this stage, young minds are highly pliable and primed for learning new skills, making it an optimal time to introduce problem-solving activities.

Engaging in problem-solving exercises helps children develop critical thinking skills. It encourages them to think independently, analyse situations, and consider multiple solutions before arriving at a conclusion. These skills are essential, not only for academic success but also for their day-to-day interactions and future careers.

Moreover, problem-solving fosters resilience and persistence. Kids learn that it is okay to make mistakes and that failure is just a part of the process. With guidance, they learn to persevere and try different approaches until they find a solution. This resilience is a valuable life skill that helps them navigate future challenges with confidence and a positive attitude.

Additionally, problem-solving activities often enhance collaborative skills. When children work in groups to solve a problem, they learn the importance of teamwork and effective communication. Sharing ideas, listening to others, and compromising are all practices that prepare them for successful social interactions.

Incorporating problem-solving exercises into the routines of 7-9-year-olds equips them with the essential skills needed for academic growth and personal development.
