Parents and teachers should prioritize memorization skills and extra challenges in multiplication for children aged 8-9 because these foundational math skills are crucial for their future academic success. At this stage, children’s cognitive abilities are rapidly developing, making it an ideal time for planting the seeds of numerical proficiency. Memorizations of multiplication tables, for instance, allow children to perform basic arithmetic more quickly and accurately, freeing up cognitive resources for solving more complex problems.

Moreover, honing multiplication skills fosters greater confidence in math, a subject where confidence often significantly impacts performance. By presenting multiplication as a challenging yet attainable goal, children learn perseverance, resilience, and the importance of effort—a mindset known as "growth mindset" that is beneficial beyond mathematics.

Additionally, advanced multiplication exercises encourage critical thinking and problem-solving skills. As children work through more complex problems, they learn to recognize patterns and develop strategic approaches, valuable skills for broader educational contexts. Finally, a solid grounding in multiplication is integral to progression in more advanced mathematical concepts such as division, fractions, and algebraic thinking.

In sum, emphasizing memorization skills and extra challenges in multiplication at ages 8-9 sets children on a path to mathematical fluency, academic success, and cognitive development essential for lifelong learning.
