Parents and teachers should prioritize basic math skills and normal word problems for children aged 3-4 because these foundational skills set the stage for future academic success. At this age, children are naturally curious and eager to learn, making it an ideal time to introduce concepts like counting, addition, and simple subtraction through relatable scenarios.

Engaging a child with word problems also enhances their language and comprehension skills. By hearing or reading problems that use everyday contexts—like sharing toys or snacks—children learn to connect mathematical concepts with real-world situations, fostering both critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. For example, if a parent says, "You have 3 apples, and I give you 2 more. How many do you have now?" it encourages children to visualize and articulate their understanding.

Moreover, early exposure to math helps develop cognitive skills, promoting better reasoning and analytical thinking in various aspects of life, not just academics. It also builds confidence as children learn to tackle challenges independently. Engaging with word problems in a fun and interactive way lays a strong foundation, equipping children with essential skills that will benefit them throughout their education and everyday decision-making processes.
