"Rather than teach Mathematics skills by drilling and rote memorization, teachers can plan rich environment and offer developmentally sequenced opportunities that allow children to explore mathematical concepts in the context of play." (Cutler, Gilkerson, Parrott & Bowne, 2003)

In relation the the above view of learning Mathematics, I myself find that learning Mathematics is so much fun with hands-on activities because we usually remember what we do rather than what we talk about. Furthermore, hands-on activities support young children's exploration of Math concepts (Cutler, Gilkerson, Parrott & Bowne, 2003).
