Practice with finding existing patterns at an early age can help a child to develop their own processes for analyzing problems or even develop improved systems based on the discovery of a new pattern. Just a little early focus on patterns can help to forge an athlete that writes better football plays, a musician that writes better music, or a business owner that makes better use of their own sales data.
