Recently, I was asked by a parent how old children should be to learn how to multiply numbers. He was shocked when I said that children in kindergarten may be experts in multiplication.
It’s not uncommon for young children to recite preliminary “times tables” as they “skip count” aloud. “Two, four, six, eight, 10” and “three, six, nine, 12” are among the first steps in learning about multiples.
In fact, adults can support skip counting by using two tools found in every home: A calculator and a clock.
