Özet
The primary goal of this study is to synthesize current research early childhood mathematical thinking and learning, focusing on cognitive development, instructional strategies, and environmental influences. study provides a comprehensive qualitative analysis, integrating diverse theoretical frameworks and recent empirical findings for a nuanced understanding of early math education. Methodologically, the study systematically reviews peer-reviewed studies published between 2013 2024, employing thematic synthesis to identify patterns and themes. stages included coding, developing descriptive themes, and generating analytical themes. The primary outcomes highlight the significant impact play-based learning, interdisciplinary approaches, and parental involvement on early mathematical development. Additionally, the study underscores role of technology and supportive learning environments in enhancing children's math skills. Conclusions emphasize the importance of holistic culturally responsive educational practices. The practical implications provide valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and researchers aiming improve early childhood math education.
