Dear young mathematician, dear parent and dear teacher,
Mathematics should feel like a game you can win by thinking, not a test you fear. In Volume One we stay with the things a six-year-old can touch and see: stones, buttons, bundles of straws, footsteps on a number track. Every page asks you to look, say, show and check. Speed is not the goal here. Understanding is.
The words of Vedic Mathematics come from ancient Sanskrit sutras. Here they are used as friendly names for ideas you can already feel: counting one more, making ten, sharing equally, and finding patterns. You will meet a few of these names in each chapter. Say them with the grown-ups who read with you, and do not worry if the words feel strange at first.
Read a chapter slowly. Stop when a question surprises you. Work the examples on a board or a sheet of paper, then try the activities in the room where you feel most comfortable. Count out loud. Draw pictures. Ask why.
Welcome to the first step of a long and joyful journey.
— Himanshu Kumar Singh (HKS)
