Abstract
This study explores how toddlers develop math language by assessing their skills focusing on concepts like counting and spatial relations. We compare bilingual toddlers from Spanish and Mandarin-speaking homes (n = 42) to examine differences in math knowledge. Findings aim to improve educational strategies to support bilingual children's math knowledge.
