Parents and teachers should prioritize problem-solving practice in normal addition and subtraction for children aged 5-8 because it lays the foundation for critical thinking and mathematical understanding. At this developmental stage, children are naturally curious, and engaging them in problem-solving activities fosters a love for learning and equips them with essential skills.

Practicing addition and subtraction in real-world contexts helps children recognize the relevance of math in their daily lives. For example, understanding how to add and subtract allows them to make sense of money, time, and quantities, which are invaluable skills for future independence.

Moreover, problem-solving encourages perseverance and resilience as children learn to tackle challenges and learn from mistakes. It also enhances their ability to reason logically, communicate their thought processes, and apply various strategies—skills essential not just in math but across all areas of learning.

Implementing problem-solving sessions in the classroom or at home makes math enjoyable, motivating students to engage actively rather than view it as a chore. Essentially, fostering a strong early foundation in math enables children to become confident, capable learners, ready to take on increasingly complex subjects as they progress in their education journey.
