Parents and teachers should care about basic addition practice in preschool math because it lays the foundation for a child's later success in mathematics and overall learning development. At a young age, children’s brains are particularly receptive to new information, making it the perfect time to introduce fundamental math concepts in a fun and engaging way. Basic addition helps children develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, which are essential not only in mathematics but in various aspects of life and education.

By practicing basic addition, children also build their confidence with numbers, and this numerical fluency encourages a positive attitude towards math as they progress through school. Mastering these early math skills can enhance a child's ability to understand more complex mathematical concepts in the future, such as subtraction, multiplication, and division. Additionally, math activities often include interactive and hands-on learning opportunities that can spark a child's curiosity and foster a lifelong love for learning. Lastly, early math skills are correlated with better academic performance overall, as they improve executive functioning—a set of mental skills that include working memory, flexible thinking, and self-control. Consequently, prioritizing basic addition practice in preschool can have far-reaching and long-lasting benefits for a child's educational journey.
