Understanding numerical values, particularly in addition and subtraction, is fundamental for early learners, serving as the foundation for all future mathematical concepts. Parents and teachers should care about this because these skills significantly influence children's problem-solving abilities and analytical thinking. Mastering addition and subtraction helps children develop a sense of number sense—the ability to recognize numbers and their relationships, which enhances their confidence in mathematics.

Moreover, these skills are not just academic; they are crucial for everyday life. Children encounter situations where basic addition and subtraction are needed, from counting change to understanding time. Early proficiency in these areas fosters independent problem-solving from a young age.

Additionally, strong arithmetic skills lead to greater engagement in school, reducing anxiety around math as children progress to more complex concepts like multiplication, division, and fractions. When parents and teachers emphasize the importance of mastering these foundational skills, they equip children not only with academic tools but also with critical thinking skills necessary for life. By nurturing their understanding, adults play a significant role in ensuring a smooth transition to more advanced mathematical concepts and real-world applications, fostering a positive attitude towards learning and exploration.
