Many parents wonder how early they should start teaching math to their children. No one asks how early they should start introducing their child to language and reading! Math is much more than just addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It starts with numbers, number sense and counting and can begin almost as soon as your child is born. Many experts agree, introducing children to numbers at a young age is beneficial. Read more in this article, When Should Kids Start Learning Math, by Mathnasium Corporate.
