When it comes to math enlightenment, it sounds mysterious at first glance, but in fact, many families are doing it for the elderly, especially when children are young. Two days ago, when I saw my neighbor's grandmother with her little grandson, she asked her child to count me, and proudly said that her grandson was just over two years old and would count from 1 to 10. This is actually a very simple mathematical enlightenment, compared to counting, the more important thing of mathematical enlightenment is that children have mathematical thinking, and there are some good ways for parents to understand. 
Mathematics is the foundation of science
Essentially, mathematics is the foundation of many science subjects. We have rarely seen primary school students learn Xi physics, chemistry, biology, and computers, and primary school students must learn Xi mathematics, starting from elementary school, to junior high school, and then to high school, mathematics is one of the compulsory subjects.
The reason is that mathematics is the foundation of science subjects, and if you don't even lay a good foundation, it will be difficult for children to learn other science subjects.
Mathematics is characterized by a comprehensive discipline
Secondly, mathematics and other disciplines are interconnected, it is a rigorous discipline, and many laws and theorems in nature are derived from mathematical formulas or mathematical reasoning.
We can almost say that most of the best scientists have established a mathematical mindset. BecauseMost of the other scientific thinking is based on the mathematical thinking mode and is an extension of mathematical thinking
Capture your child's digital sensitivity
Generally speaking, children will be very sensitive to numbers when they are two years old, and they will count their fingers intentionally or unintentionally, of course, children cannot count at this time. But this represents a digitally sensitive period for children. We parents should seize this sensitive period to enlighten our children in mathematical thinking, so as to lay a good foundation for our children to learn Xi mathematics in the future.
Three-stage Xi method
When the child is already familiar with the wooden stick, we can use the three-stage Xi method to let him clearly distinguish the quantitative relationship.
First, you can draw 10 areas on the paper, and then mark each area with 1-10 numbers. Then ask your child to place small objects corresponding to the numbers in each area, such as small candies. When your child is done, let him check that he is correct and correct any mistakes until he gets everything right.
Then order:"Give me 2 pieces of sugar"or"Give me 8 sugars. "Check if he has mastered the values represented by these symbols.
Finally, take out a few more candies and ask him:"How many is this?"
This method allows him to practice Xi and repetition to deepen his concept of numbers, so that mathematics can be transformed from symbols into concrete objects in his brain.
Make abstract numbers concrete
The key to math initiation is to enable children to associate numbers with quantities, that is, when children see 2 apples, they can accurately say the number 2, and when they see 5 oranges, they can accurately say the number 5. This is the concretization of numbers, and it is also the first step in putting numbers into practical use.
Toys that are truly suitable for children are more conducive to stimulating and promoting the development of children's motor coordination, cognition and brain thinking.
I recommend a new toy that I recently discovered, and the children at home especially like to play, that is, this child's math enlightenment artifact——Puppy arithmetic scales.
The most important thing for a good toy is to be fun, so that it can arouse the interest of children and continue to play.
We don't expect toys to cultivate geniuses, children are willing to play, make the process of learning Xi fun, and get a sense of accomplishment from it, which is the most valuable.
The puppy digital balance is a toy that allows children to fully feel, try and make mistakes, and then find the right answer by themselves.
Learning Xi through play is very interesting.
The shape of the puppy itself is very popular with children, and the design is particularly ingenious, and the weight between the number and the puppy is very accurate and error-free, which is not possible with other similar balance toys.
If there is 1 more, the balance will be immediately visualized, telling the child that it is not equal, she can easily understand the concept of 3.
Not only do numbers and puppies create a balance, but so do numbers and numbers.
There are also matching cards for children to practice Xi together, which can deepen the memory of the baby's sense of number.
There are many ways to play, and you can learn Xi math while playing!
01. Let children know numbers.
Bao Ma can put a number on one side of the scale, and let the child choose the number or put the puppy on it
By balancing the scales, children will gradually understand the connections between numbers and quantities.
02. Let children learn to compare the size of numbers.
For a child who doesn't know much about math, suddenly telling her that the numbers 8<10 are difficult to understand.
However, by comparing the size of the scale, the child will naturally learn the size of the number after playing well.
03. Let children easily learn addition and subtraction.
Put an 8 on the left side of the scale and a 3 on the right side and ask the child to think about what 8 minus 3 isOr how much 3 plus equals 8.
In the process of testing, it can not only cultivate children's mathematical ability, but also cultivate logic in the process of thinking.
04. Make digital cards as a parent-child game.
In addition to using the balance to do addition and subtraction, you can also use the cards that come with it to play number games.
Draw a random card and use the other cards, numbers, and puppies to complete the content behind the equal sign.
Phased play Comprehensively cultivate children's interest in learning Xi.
The difficulty of the cards ranges from green to purple to blue, allowing children to play in stages without skipping steps.
Because it is advanced from shallow to deep, it is also more in line with the child's cognitive development level.
The most practical thing about this set of cards is that it saves mothers from racking their brains to think about the topic.
There are many different combinations of addition and subtraction problem calculations, which can be played in turns and can be played for a long time.
05. Two-player or multi-player game.
One person is responsible for the left side of the scale, one person is responsible for the right side of the scale, one person is responsible for solving the problem, and the other is responsible for leveling the scale.
If there are more than two children in the family, this game must be fun.
Compared with the textbook-style graphic teaching method, this way of touching and trying is more suitable for the thinking mode of young children, and the time that can be played is also very long.
Each number has also been carefully handled, and the size and weight are suitable for the child's palm.
The size of the puppy is small, so if the child is still relatively young, I am afraid that the naughty baby will put it in the mouth and eat it by mistake, so the younger children also need to be accompanied by adults during the play.
In addition to the puppy arithmetic scale, there is also a small monkey scale, which is also very cute!
This set of arithmetic balances was originally only listed abroad, a set of more than 100, but now we also have our own domestic production, a set of **699 yuan, decent, 2 sets**119$9
This arithmetic balance allows children to play from the age of 2 years old and easily learn math and arithmetic while playing!If you like it, don't miss it, and remember to start math as soon as possible
