Parents and teachers should prioritize mental math practice for children aged 7-9 because it plays a fundamental role in developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills. During this developmental stage, children are starting to transition from concrete to abstract mathematical understanding. Mental math strengthens their numerical fluency, allowing them to perform calculations quickly and accurately without relying on calculators or paper. This confidence in handling numbers fosters a positive attitude towards math, reducing anxiety and building resilience.

Furthermore, engaging in mental math encourages children to explore various mathematical concepts, enhancing their ability to adapt strategies to solve problems. It cultivates mental agility, which is essential not only for succeeding in academic settings but also for everyday tasks, such as budgeting or time management.

In addition, mental math practice nurtures important cognitive functions like working memory, concentration, and persistence. These skills are vital not just in mathematics but across all areas of learning. By making mental math a regular part of learning at home or in the classroom, parents and teachers contribute significantly to their child’s overall cognitive development, laying a strong foundation for future academic success.
