The research sample was composed of 60 children. In this study, test of early mathematics ability-TEMA-3 form A and B were used. Results of the research was determined that the mathematics ability test scores of children significantly changed, depending on the experimental procedure applied (p<0.001). The results of the t-test showed that the effect of mathematics education based on the theory of multiple intelligences continued after 1 month (p<0.01). In the mathematics, education program based on the theory of multiple intelligences, dealing with >1 area of intelligence through one activity and having children involved in the activities as much as they want and in the direction of their interests make children willing to get involved in the program.
