Parents and teachers should prioritize teaching addition skills and normal word problems to children aged 4-6 because these foundational math skills are essential for their overall cognitive development and future academic success. Early exposure to addition aids in enhancing a child's ability to solve problems, understand numbers, and develop logical thinking. These skills also promote confidence and interest in math, making future learning experiences positive and less intimidating.

Understanding and solving word problems additionally helps children integrate mathematical concepts into real-life situations, fostering critical thinking and comprehension skills. Word problems teach children how to extract relevant information from text and apply mathematical operations to find solutions, an ability that is crucial for complex problem-solving later in their schooling.

Moreover, mastering these skills at an early age sets a solid groundwork for more advanced math concepts. Children who grasp addition early are more likely to excel in related areas such as subtraction, multiplication, and division. This early mastery also correlates with better academic performances in subjects that require analytical skills. Overall, focusing on these critical math areas supports a child's intellectual growth, fine motor skills (through writing numbers), and lays a route for academic confidence that benefits them throughout their educational journey.
