It is becoming increasingly popular among parents to teach a baby math and multiplication tables at an extremely early age – even as young as 4 months old – and it has been found that the earlier a child learns the basics of math, the better he or she performs in preschool math activities.
Extremely young children are right-brain dominant, and this allows them to think intuitively and to subitize large quantities of numbers, and all this means is that they can recognize that, say, 67 dots on a card is a different mathematical concept from 66 dots on a card.
This subitizing ability allows them to grasp the basics of learning mathematics very quickly and also while they are still very young, and introducing them to math games for children at this age will therefore allow them to cope with preschool math more easily than they otherwise would have done.
