Parents and teachers should care about basic arithmetic for 4-year-olds because foundational math skills are crucial for a child’s future academic success. During the early years, children's brains are exceptionally receptive to learning, making it an ideal time to introduce mathematical concepts. Basic arithmetic helps develop problem-solving skills, enhances cognitive development, and encourages logical thinking.

Furthermore, early mastery of counting, addition, and subtraction fosters confidence and a positive attitude towards math. Engaging in arithmetic activities can alleviate math anxiety that may develop later in life. Moreover, these skills contribute to everyday practical situations, such as understanding time, measurements, and money.

Integrating basic arithmetic into fun games and activities can also strengthen parent-child or teacher-child relationships, as they work together in a positive learning environment. This collaborative approach encourages communication skills, social interaction, and motivation.

Lastly, a solid arithmetic foundation equips children with the tools they need to navigate more complex subjects as they progress in their education, particularly in STEM fields. By prioritizing basic arithmetic for this age group, parents and teachers set the stage for lifelong learning and success in school and beyond.
