Parents and teachers should prioritize mental math skills, particularly normal addition, for 6-year-olds because these foundational abilities significantly impact a child's overall mathematical development. At this age, children are starting to grasp basic mathematical concepts and procedures, and enhancing their mental addition skills fosters numerical fluency, leading to confidence in further math learning.

Developing mental math skills allows children to perform calculations quickly and accurately in everyday situations, bolstering their independence and problem-solving abilities. In addition, mastering mental addition develops critical thinking skills, enabling students to approach various mathematical problems creatively.

Moreover, strong mental math abilities can help bridge the gap between concrete understanding and abstract thinking. When children learn to manipulate numbers mentally, they create a deeper connection with mathematics, enhancing their comprehension of more complex operations as they progress through school.

Finally, fostering a love for numbers through engaging mental math activities can encourage a positive attitude toward learning and math in general. This positive mathematical mindset is essential in helping children embrace challenges and build perseverance, skills they will carry throughout their academic careers. By investing in mental math skills now, parents and teachers equip children for future success in mathematics and beyond.
