It's a great gift for the child's future to teach them to love math and be comfortable with numbers early.
From age 2, kids are able to learn the core skills required for problem solving such as classifying, counting, as well as recognizing numbers and shapes. Fitting objects and sorting shapes is a good start, and of course block building games as the child progresses. After learning their basic numbers, children are able to develop to the next level of math learning in no time.
In math games, game is often progressed by solving very simple problems and counting, and it is the best way to make number learning engaging for both you and your child. It's also a good idea to bring math into other topics, such as cooking or arts - counting ingredients and using the good old apples and oranges to demonstrate fractions, or use shapes to create faces and houses.
