For centuries, the abacus has proven itself time and time again as a superior tool in developing mathematical skills.
This simple tool makes counting, colors, patterns, addition & subtraction a pleasure to practice and easy to demonstrate. Includes instructions.
Melissa & Doug quality as you've come to expect. Solid wooden construction, colorful beads that slide easily from side to side with a pleasant click, click, click.
If you want your kids to enjoy learning, toss this fun tool in the mix. This little number is an essential that will captivate them when they are toddlers, teach them as they grow, and bring back memories when they play with their own kids.

As one of the top online toy retailers, we have access to unprecendented quantities of product review data. One of the key ways that we use this data is by associating our products to the specific ages and genders of the kids who are playing with them. Whereas most retailers must rely upon manufacturer suggested ages (i.e. 3+), we take actual customer usage and share it with you here so that you can choose the perfect toy or game.
But how does this help me? You can use these graphs as a general measure of it's appropriateness for a given age and gender. While this information is generally accurate, it should not be used as an absolute answer. For instance, many dinosaur toys are purchased for boys, however, that doesn't mean that it's inappropriate for a girl who happens to like dinosaurs.

 |
NOTE: The orange color in the charts above indicate ages that are LESS than the manufacturer suggested age. Please purchase at your discretion if your child is younger than 3 years of age.

My kids (ages 3 and 5) asked what it was, and immediately started playing with the beads. They enjoy counting them as they push them across. My 5 yr old liked seeing how they were grouped by tens and had 100 beads. It will be a great math tool, and seems sturdily built.

This abacus was bought to help my grandchildren, ages 6-10 to learn math skills. The 10 year old is behind in his multiplication. I hope to get him caught up with this item. Used one years ago with my daughter and it worked great. I will encourage the other 3 grandkids to use it too. It stays at my house so have not had the opportunity to try it on him yet.
