Understanding number sense at an early age is essential for children aged 5-6 because it lays the foundation for their future mathematical learning. Number sense refers to a person’s ability to comprehend, relate, and connect numbers efficiently, a crucial skill in everyday life. For children in this age group, developing number sense involves recognizing numbers, counting, and understanding basic concepts like more and less, part-part-whole relationships, and the ability to make estimations.

Parents and teachers should prioritize improving number sense because children who grasp these numerical concepts early on, typically, find it easier to tackle more complex math problems later. A strong number sense can boost a child’s confidence and enjoyment in learning math, which shapes their attitudes towards the subject. When children develop number sense, they become more adept at solving problems creatively and knowing various ways to approach an answer.

Additionally, having good number sense is fundamental for logical reasoning and critical thinking, skills that extend beyond math class into daily decision-making and problem-solving scenarios. Engaging children at a young age with playful, exploratory activities, allows them to build a healthy relationship with math, gaining important skills that benefit their academic growth and everyday lifes.
