It outlines recent research on how children best learn mathematics and supports practitioners to know why preparation works better than planning and why 'thinking space' matters more than they think.

Children possess a natural aptitude for mathematics, evident in their playful interactions. They engage in mathematical play, immersing themselves in mathematical concepts and activities. However, early years practitioners often face challenges in making mathematics relevant and engaging for their young learners. Despite children's inherent mathematical abilities, practitioners may struggle to understand how to capitalize on this or how to incorporate observed play into their mathematics teaching.
This remarkable Nursery World Award-Winning Book serves as a powerful tool for early years teachers. It empowers them to recognize the learning potential inherent in children's play and to remain committed to play-based practices. The book provides insights into recent research on the best ways for children to learn mathematics, offering valuable guidance for practitioners. It also supports early years practitioners in understanding the importance of preparation over planning and the significance of creating 'thinking spaces' that foster deeper mathematical understanding.
By embracing the principles outlined in this book, early years teachers can unlock the full potential of their young learners and foster a lifelong love for mathematics. The book serves as a valuable resource for educators, providing practical strategies and insights that can enhance the mathematical learning experiences of children in the early years.
