Parents and teachers should prioritize addition and subtraction practice for preschoolers because foundational math skills are crucial for early cognitive development. These basic arithmetic abilities not only enhance problem-solving skills, but they also lay the groundwork for future learning in mathematics and other subjects. When children engage in addition and subtraction activities, they develop critical thinking skills, learn to recognize patterns, and improve their ability to strategize.

Additionally, practicing math through fun and interactive methods fosters a positive attitude towards learning. Activities such as games, storytelling, and hands-on manipulatives make learning enjoyable and memorable, which helps children retain new concepts. This early exposure encourages a love for mathematics and reinforces the idea that math is a relevant part of daily life.

Furthermore, addition and subtraction skills help children with everyday tasks, from sharing toys to counting snacks, promoting social skills and cooperation. As educators and caregivers, it's essential to recognize that strong arithmetic skills build children’s confidence, enabling them to tackle more complex mathematical concepts as they progress through school. Investing time and resources into these early practices greatly benefits children's overall academic development and personal growth.
