Mathematics learning in early childhood (ECD) plays an important role in developing children's logical and cognitive thinking skills as a foundation for readiness to learn mathematics at the next stage. Although mathematics learning is often misunderstood as merely counting and formulas, for children, mathematics is more directed as a tool to satisfy their curiosity and solve everyday problems they encounter. The mathematics learning process in early childhood education institutions should be carried out gradually and systematically to optimally stimulate children's thinking abilities. Thus, children not only master basic mathematical concepts but are also able to apply them in daily life. This study emphasizes the importance of introducing mathematics from an early age as a foundation for sustainable development of logical-mathematical intelligence.
