Easter Chick Steps Math Activity for Preschoolers (4-6 Year Olds)

Have you ever thought that mathematics can define a person’s behavior?

Mathematics plays an important role in children’s lives and development as it stimulates critical and orderly thinking, preparing their brains to understand abstract concepts.

That will allow children to have a solid base to face different situations and find the appropriate solutions for each of them.

Through mathematics, children can reach the construction and solidity of values since patterns are established to guide children’s lives.

That means that mathematics favors children’s intelligence to function in a classroom and favors development in their daily lives.

Mathematics allows them to know in a more precise way the world that surrounds them.

The strengthening of mathematical concepts in children will be tools that will accompany them for the rest of their lives in their daily living activities. Numbers are concepts that we all know.

That is why mathematics is considered a universal language. For this reason, mathematical concepts must be developed and strengthened in the first years of life; however, this is a process that requires children to interact and learn through their own experience.

They must have the possibility of developing each of their skills independently, guided by their interest in knowing, learning, and discovering their environment, using their senses.
