Parents and teachers should prioritize mental math practice for young children, ages 3-8, as it lays a critical foundation for future mathematical understanding and cognitive development. During these formative years, children's brains are especially primed to absorb new information and develop essential skills. Practicing normal addition and subtraction helps to strengthen their numerical fluency, making it easier for them to tackle more complex mathematical concepts as they advance in their education.

Mental math practice enhances problem-solving abilities and encourages logical thinking, which are valuable for academic success beyond mathematics. As children tackle simple math problems in their heads, they learn to approach challenges with confidence and develop the ability to process information quickly and efficiently. Moreover, these foundational math skills boost self-esteem, as young learners feel increasingly capable and competent in their abilities.

By promoting mental math, parents and teachers help children build a positive relationship with mathematics, reducing anxiety and fostering a mindset of perseverance and resilience. Effective practice at an early age also prepares children for real-life situations that require quick mental calculations, ultimately supporting their overall cognitive and practical skills development. Therefore, investing time in practicing basic addition and subtraction is crucial for the holistic growth of young learners.
