Kids can count on this wooden “calculator” for years of play and learning! The Melissa & Doug Abacus is beautifully crafted with a solid hardwood base, and 100 brightly colored wooden beads. The sturdy frame holds 10 thick-coated wires with 10 colorful wooden beads on each — 100 beads in all. Younger kids can slide the beads back and forth to explore different patterns and colors, while practicing their fine motor skills. Older children can enjoy using the abacus as a visual and hands-on way to learn addition and subtraction and other early math concepts. The beads are sized for little hands, and glide easily across the smooth wires. The counting toy comes with eight extension activities to add to your child’s learning experience. With no loose pieces and no mess, it’s a great toy to pack in a bag for on-the-go play. The abacus makes a great gift for kids ages three and older for hands-on, screen-free play.

Title: Great quality and a nice tool
Review: Helps to my little one to get better in math.Is made with a great quality and the wood is nicely painted and smooth, no rough corners at all!Vivid colors.I am amazed that this is not part of the school supply list! It was mandatory in my country when I was a kid and you could use calculator until 7th grade (I do not know now).Recommended!

Title: Great Counting Toy
Review: My mom wanted this for my little niece and nephew (3 & 4 years old). I would do math with my nephew using my fingers or his during my visits and he picked up on it quickly.The colors help with general counting to 100, learning how to add and subtract as well. Simple and great toy for the curious mind.

Title: Fun learning tool
Review: Both of my young great grandchildren (3&5yrs old) have fun with the abacus. I didn’t realize that they needed to know so much when entering kindergarten. This is a great visual to hello learning his numbers (counting by 5 & 10’s)

Title: Not just for kids!
Review: Believe it or not, we bought this as a toy for our parrots! They were hesitant at first, but they do love to play with the colorful beads and slide them around. I doubt we will have them solving calculus anytime soon, but only time will tell! The abacus is well made and pretty stable, it can tip over if the enough force it put on the top rows but its not heavy enough to be a concern.

Review: Esté ábaco es excelente para bebés y niños pequeños. Es de excelente material (maderada) y está muy bien hecho pero fíjense en el tamaño ya que es grande lo cual es perfecto para enseñarle a niños pequeños a contar.

Review: Kargo elime sorunsuz ulaştı. Ürün muadillerine göre pahalı olabilir ama gözlemlediğim kadarıyla diğer ürünlerde boya dökülmesi yaşanabiliyor ama şimdiye kadar bu abaküste böyle bir sorun yaşamadık.
