Parents and teachers should prioritize basic arithmetic skills for children aged 4-8 because these foundational skills serve as the building blocks for future mathematical understanding and overall academic success. Early childhood is a crucial developmental stage where children establish essential cognitive skills. Mastering basic arithmetic—such as addition, subtraction, counting, and number recognition—helps children develop problem-solving abilities, logical thinking, and a greater sense of numeracy.

Furthermore, these skills are not only integral for math but also beneficial across various subjects in the curriculum. Competence in arithmetic promotes confidence in children, enabling them to tackle more complex concepts in the later years. Engaging activities make learning fun and interactive, nurturing a love for math that can last a lifetime.

In addition, poor foundational skills can lead to challenges in school, causing frustration and disengagement. By introducing extra challenges tailored to their developmental stage, children can improve their skills at their own pace, solidifying their understanding through practice. Consequently, both parents and teachers play a critical role in establishing a strong arithmetic foundation that fosters a positive attitude towards learning and paves the way for a bright academic future.
