Parents and teachers should prioritize mental math practice, particularly normal addition, for 6-year-olds because it lays a crucial foundation for mathematical understanding and overall cognitive development. Engaging in mental math enhances children’s ability to perform calculations quickly and accurately without relying solely on paper or calculators. This fosters a sense of confidence and builds their numeracy skills, which are vital for later, more complex math concepts.

Moreover, mental math helps to improve critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. As children practice addition in their heads, they learn to recognize patterns, understand number relationships, and develop strategies for approaching math problems. This cognitive flexibility is essential for mathematical fluency and success in future academic pursuits.

Beyond academics, mental math promotes independence and resilience. When children tackle addition challenges without external aids, they cultivate persistence and self-reliance. Parents and teachers can create a supportive environment by incorporating fun, engaging activities and games that make practicing addition enjoyable.

By emphasizing the importance of mental math in early education, adults can equip children with essential skills that will benefit them not only in their academic journey but also in everyday situations their whole lives.
