It creates a platform for playful math. It brings up the child in a way that they don’t have to think that math is so difficult, rocket science. It can be enjoyable.
… child learns maths without realizing its maths … I think it’s a nice way of introducing mathematics.
It helps you bond more with the baby and also get to understand them more because they are more open and free during playful moments.
… as I teach my girl about the concept, it’s all about mathematics. But they are able to learn other learning areas, like language, the colors, even the similarities, the difference, the taller, the shorter, bigger, biggest. So for me, I find it interesting as a parent and also as a teacher.
…It’s not like the mathematics that we were taught where you feel like you’re being punished…This has been packaged in a very fun manner. So, even a child understands it easily..
It has made me also know the specific level up to which my child can understand an activity, and how he understands the stories. I have got to know him more.
Ohh, yes! Yeah, I’m that type who used to say that math is difficult. l was the type but no longer! If my daughter can grasp it at two years, then there’s nothing difficult. Math is fun, by the way, Math is for everyone.
It’s simple, it’s fun, it’s easy to understand. Then it’s integrated in a manner that when the kid sees what’s there, she does not get bored…It’s just fun.
Playing with your children strengthens the bond, boosts the child’s confidence and trust.
Through play, children learn problem-solving, creativity, cooperation, and emotional regulation, forming a strong foundation for future learning in changing the attitude to maths and well-being.
