About “Mathing” Tips: These tips give parents ideas for math exercises that will develop their child’s math abilities. Just as you should read with your child, you should “math” with them as well, using natural language that makes sense to a child. Doing math with your child is a great way to interact with them and help them learn about our world.
Today’s parent tip for “mathing” with your child focuses on even and odd numbers. One of the first number patterns that children learn is the pattern of even numbers: two, four, six, eight … This counting sequence is often learned on the playground, first as only a song. Later, a connection is made to counting and even numbers. You can help your child make this connection and also learn about odd numbers.
