Basic arithmetic serves as the critical foundation upon which later, more complex mathematical concepts are built, making its understanding vital for children aged 7-9. This early stage, often referred to as concrete operational stage in Piaget's theory, is when children begin to solve problems logically. Mastering basic arithmetic such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division equips them with essential skills they need not only for advanced math but for everyday life situations involving time, money, measurements, and even logical reasoning.

A solid grasp of arithmetic enhances cognitive development by promoting problem-solving skills and logical thinking. It also boosts confidence and reduces anxiety around math, fostering a more positive attitude towards the subject as children progress through school. Falling behind in basic arithmetic can create a barrier to understanding algebra, geometry, and other more complex math fields later on, which can ultimately limit educational and career opportunities.

Moreover, early proficiency in math has been linked to better academic performance across subjects, as the skills learned – such as attention to detail, pattern recognition, and analytical thinking – are transferable. Thus, both parents and teachers should prioritize ensuring that children have a strong mathematical foundation early in their academic journey, setting the stage for long-term success.
