Mathematics is a subject that studies concepts such as quantity, structure, change, space and information. Even though many people think that mathematics is of little use when they grow up, it is really affecting our lives. 3-6-year-old baby's mathematical thinking enlightenment, for this stage of baby's mathematical learning, the state has regulations. 20 10 the Ministry of education redrafted the guide for learning and development of children aged 3-6 (hereinafter referred to as the guide), which includes the part of "mathematical cognition" in order to form a seamless connection with primary schools. Simply put, it comes down to three parts: the initial perception of mathematics, the understanding of quantitative relationship and the perception of shape space. The following will talk about its principle and operation mode in detail for these three parts.

First of all, the baby is unfamiliar with mathematics at first, and the elegant teaching method will definitely not play a good role, so parents should turn mathematics into a form that children like. For example, you can't let the baby simply count from "1" to "20" or even "100", but you should integrate mathematics into play, such as giving the baby a ball and counting it during the racket.

Secondly, parents should know how to guide correctly. For example, just bought a puzzle book for the baby, what parents have to do is to guide the child to read it by himself first. He will think in the process of reading, and parents should not directly guide him. When the baby is in trouble, parents can try to ask the baby some questions, such as how many items are there in the picture? 1 What's the change in the item sorting? What about the second item? Step by step, help the baby sort out the problem-solving ideas and let him get the answer. He can take the initiative to observe and think.

After understanding the above contents, parents can carry out more specific mathematical cognitive learning with their babies. In the whole stage of 3-6 years old, mathematics education must be guided in the form of "children", "games" and "life" in order to achieve the best effect.
