I talked math with my daughter from the beginning and it was just a part of our way of life. She’s 5 now, and is always relating things somehow to math in everyday conversation, even with people that aren’t me lol. Many times people mention it to me. For example, she will remember the girl who sat at seat #16, or the boy #12, she won’t learn their names for a bit, but she’ll know them by number. And instead of telling someone she has 13 dolls, she’ll say, there’s 3 groups of 3 or 9 dolls over there, and 4 dolls over there, which is the same as 10+3, so I have 13 dolls. I’m happy she realizes tho that math is not just a subject for school, it’s useful in our everyday life.
