National Mathematics Day is celebrated on December 22nd to honour the life and work of Srinivasa Ramanujan, a legendary Indian mathematician. A self-taught mathematician, he made extraordinary contributions to the field of mathematics, especially to the theory of numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mathematics plays a significant role in shaping and developing human life. National Mathematics Day, therefore, does not just acknowledge Ramanujan\u2019s contributions, it also aims to honour the importance of mathematics in our lives while inspiring people to reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite its importance in our lives, the word \u201cmath\u201d invokes mixed feelings in people. While some thoroughly enjoy the insights offered by the subject and its practical applications, for several others, it can even cause a lot of anxiety and dread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important, therefore, to introduce the subject right in playschool through fun counting activities<\/mark><\/a> that lay a strong foundation for problem-solving. If you are looking for some ways to celebrate numbers on National Mathematics Day, here is an entertaining list. It not only includes activities that can be done within the four walls of the classroom, but it also inspires students to appreciate the subject in its real-life application. So here goes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
