In the process of using mathematics to scientifically explore natural things and solve real life problems, children not only gain rich perceptual experience and fully develop thinking in images, but also try to classify, sort out, summarize and abstract specific things, gradually develop logical thinking ability and lay a foundation for further learning in other fields.
The core of children's scientific learning is to stimulate their desire to explore and cultivate their ability to explore. Adults should be good at discovering and protecting children's curiosity, make full use of natural and real life opportunities, guide children to learn to discover, analyze and solve problems through observation, comparison, operation and experiment, help children accumulate experience and apply it to new learning activities, and form lifelong learning methods and abilities.
The development of children's thinking is mainly based on concrete image thinking. Children should be guided to learn scientifically through direct perception, personal experience and practical operation, rather than instilling and strengthening in pursuit of knowledge mastery.

Principles of learning and development guidelines for children aged 3-6:
1, follow the children's development law and learning characteristics. Cherish the unique value of children's life and games, fully respect and protect their curiosity and interest in learning, create a rich educational environment, arrange their daily life reasonably, support and meet the needs of children to gain experience through direct perception, practical operation and personal experience to the maximum extent, and prohibit "pulling out the seedlings to encourage" advanced education and intensive training.
2. Pay attention to the comprehensive and harmonious development of children's body and mind. We should pay attention to the mutual penetration and integration in the fields of learning and development, and promote children's all-round and coordinated development from different angles, instead of unilaterally pursuing one or several aspects of development.
3. Respect individual differences in children's development. We should not only accurately grasp the stage characteristics of children's development, but also fully respect the individual differences in the continuous process of children's development, support and guide each child to develop from the original level to a higher level, and reach the "ladder" of development presented in the Guide at his own speed and way. It is forbidden to measure all children with a ruler.
