Many parents with young children ask us for advice on how to begin their child’s journey in math. At Enriches Lab, we believe that early math discovery is not about memorizing formulas or jumping ahead into advanced topics, but about building curiosity, logical thinking, and confidence through meaningful exploration.
Before Grade 3, we do not recommend teaching advanced math concepts prematurely. Instead, we encourage families to nurture a child’s natural love for thinking, reading, and problem understanding, which are the essential skills forming the foundation for future success in mathematics and beyond.
One of the best ways to develop these abilities is through math storybooks. The beautifully written and illustrated stories make mathematical ideas come alive in everyday life, helping children connect language, logic, and imagination.
