In the context of numeracy development, the involvement of parents plays a significant role in shaping a child's mathematical skills and confidence. Understanding how parents, especially those involved in the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps), engage with their children's numerical development is essential for fostering effective educational support systems. The study assessed the Exploring 4P's Parental Engagement on Children's Numeracy in Primary Grades 1 to 3 at Cordova Central Elementary School in the academic year 2023-2024. This study applied thematic analysis and the qualitative method of research to gather data. The respondents to the study were 26 parents, for a total of 6 respondents chosen through purposive sampling. The results are presented, analyzed, and discussed in a sequential manner, starting with the acquisition of data on the respondents, specifically the parents and teachers, regarding 4P’s parental engagement in children’s numerical development. It showcases the parental engagement of Cordova Central Elementary School's 4P’s parents in their child’s numerical development, highlighting engagement, factors contributing, and challenges faced. However, despite challenges with school involvement, many parents actively teach their children math at home, leading to positive outcomes as children demonstrate understanding and proficiency in numeracy. While numeracy appears manageable in primary grades 1–3, some parents note that literacy poses greater difficulty. The researchers recommend that teachers regularly engage 4P's parents, provide visual learning tools, ensure children's safety by guiding them to school, facilitate parental involvement in numeracy development, foster collaboration between parents and teachers, and encourage positive attitudes and support, while the DSWD monitors fund allocation and holds meetings to enhance parental engagement in their children's education.
