30 with a tail tasks. Mathematics for the smallest

How to make a preschooler friends with mathematics? The author of the book — educator Tatyana Melnikova — recommends, first of all, to abandon solving endless columns with examples, which only trains mechanical memorization. Meanwhile, it is worth engaging in... the development of mathematical thinking: teaching the little one to observe and act, reasoning “what happened”. For example, with a cat that has a missing paw, or with candies that suddenly ran out. Along with such reasoning and conversations, the first tasks will naturally come into the child's life, just as they came into the life of the book's hero Alyosha and his friend — the St. Bernard Senya. Together with Alyosha and Senya, as well as the dachshund Adelaide, bulldog Hotdog, spaniel Miguel, elephants, giraffes, and even soldier beetles, your child will learn to solve the first tasks easily and truly love mathematics.
The author also took care of those who help the little one: in the “adult” part of the book, you will find answers to possible questions and receive inspiring support in the field of mathematics education.
