Mental arithmetic skills are crucial for 9-year-olds because they lay the foundation for all subsequent mathematical learning and problem-solving abilities. For parents and teachers, nurturing these skills ensures children are better equipped to handle more complex mathematical concepts as they grow. Mental arithmetic encourages cognitive development by enhancing skills such as logical thinking, memory, and pattern recognition, which are essential not only in mathematics but in everyday decision-making scenarios.

Moreover, proficiency in mental arithmetic fosters confidence in young learners. This confidence can reduce math anxiety, which is common among school-aged children and often stems from a lack of foundational skills. When children can solve problems quickly and accurately in their heads, they develop a positive attitude towards the subject, encouraging a lifelong love for learning and exploration.

Additionally, mental arithmetic supports real-life applications. From estimating values while shopping to planning travel time, these skills are used daily. For both parents and teachers, understanding the importance of mental arithmetic in a child's development translates into supporting tools and techniques that can make learning more engaging and effective. By incorporating fun math games, puzzles, and daily practice, they can significantly improve a child's mathematical capabilities and overall academic success.
