Parents and teachers should care about mental math skills because they play a crucial role in a child's overall mathematical proficiency and cognitive development. Mental math fosters number sense, helping children understand mathematical concepts intuitively. This skill aids in problem-solving and enhances reasoning abilities, allowing students to approach complex tasks with confidence.

Moreover, mental math cultivates a sense of independence in children. When they can perform calculations in their head, they aren't solely reliant on calculators or static methods. This independence encourages perseverance and resilience, qualities essential for success in academics and beyond. Additionally, practicing mental math can be engaging and fun, often incorporating games and challenges that spark a child's interest in mathematics.

In the context of "Extra Challenge Math," these skills also prepare students for more advanced concepts they will encounter in school. Strong mental math abilities ensure they have the necessary tools to handle challenges in higher-grade mathematics, such as algebra and geometry. By valuing and supporting mental math development, parents and teachers set a foundation for lifelong learning and a positive relationship with math, empowering children to tackle future challenges confidently. Ultimately, investing in mental math is investing in a child's future success.
