Abstract

The purpose is to study about the importance of play in early childhood mathematics education. We analyzed the appearances of young children in some practices focusing on “flow”, a psychological state in which “fun” motivates and the emotion becomes internal compensation and is devoted to activities that motivate the next action. As a result, we revealed that it is possible to acquire mathematical concepts and develop their mathematical thinking during play with flow experiences. We need to consider whether all the mathematical concepts and mathematical thinking can be enhanced during the play, or not and confirm the validity as mathematics of the childcare content of “Environment”.
