Parents and teachers should prioritize mental math skills for children aged 6-7 because these foundational abilities foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills essential for lifelong learning. Developing mental math enhances a child's confidence and independence, creating a positive feedback loop that encourages curiosity and exploration in mathematics.

At this stage, children are particularly receptive to new concepts, making it the perfect time to instill a love for numbers. Mental math helps young learners recognize patterns, build intuition, and understand the relationships between numbers. It also improves their ability to estimate and make quick calculations, which is useful in everyday situations, such as shopping or cooking.

Additionally, when children engage in mental math exercises, they enhance their memory and concentration skills, laying the groundwork for more complex mathematical concepts in the future. This early enthusiasm can translate into stronger performance in school, setting the foundation for academic success.

Moreover, focusing on mental math provides children with a tool to assess their understanding without the crutch of calculators. This empowers kids, equipping them with skills they will carry into advanced education and their future careers. Encouraging mental math fosters a growth mindset, teaching children that practice leads to improvement and achievement.
