Parents and teachers should prioritize subtraction practice and extra challenge activities for 3-year-olds for several essential reasons. First, early exposure to mathematical concepts lays the groundwork for lifelong numerical understanding. Each child learns at their pace, so providing varied practice ensures they develop a solid foundation in both addition and subtraction.

At this age, children are naturally curious and capable of grasping basic numerical relationships through play-based learning. Engaging them in fun and interactive activities helps build their confidence, making them more enthusiastic about mathematics as they grow. Additional challenges prepare them to think critically and solve problems creatively, skills beneficial beyond math.

Moreover, practicing subtraction helps children understand critical thinking and promote cognitive development. As they learn to take away values, they also grasp fundamental concepts of quantity and reversibility. Through playful activities such as games and puzzles, parents and teachers can reinforce these skills in a non-intimidating environment.

Fostering positive attitudes toward learning math early on helps combat math anxiety later in life. By supporting subtraction practice and introducing extra challenges, adults can cultivate a rich intellectual environment that ignites curiosity, builds confidence, and lays a strong foundation for future academic success.
