Understanding subtraction, along with addition, is fundamental for children aged 6-9 as these are foundational math skills crucial for future academic success. At this formative stage, mastering subtraction helps develop problem-solving abilities and logical thinking, which are essential not only in math but across all subjects.

For parents and teachers, investing time in teaching subtraction through hands-on activities, visual aids, and consistent practice makes the learning process engaging. This support fosters a positive attitude toward math from an early age.
