Abstract

An early age (0-6) years is a golden period. This is the right time to provide stimulation to optimize all aspects of children development. The aspects of children development that is in questions are: moral, cognitive, motor, language, social, emotional, and art. All of those aspects need to be developed for early childhood education, and one of them is cognitive development consisting of the concept of shapes, sizes, and patterns, a concept of numbers, symbols of numbers and letters that can be introduced through playing math. The introduction of mathematics is very important for children in early ages. Many everyday problems, even a very simple matter requires mathematical calculations such as, shopping, counting objects, counting time, locating, counting distance, and counting speed. Early childhood education teachers need to master simple math concepts that are appropriate for children in their early childhood. The strategy to introduce simple math needs to be understood in order to train children to count and use other mathematical calculations. In order to introduce math for children in early childhood, forms of activities are geared towards the development and characteristics of children i.e. by playing. Teacher introduces mathematics by using fun activities and using concrete media. For children in 5-6 years old, their cognitive development is being switched at a pre-operational phase to concrete. At this stage, children learn best through presence objects. Children will easily remember things, numbers, and characteristics even though it was not appeared in front of him. The introduction of mathematics was expected in the various aspects of child developments, especially cognitive development in which it can be developed optimally.
