PlanToys Abacus

How to Play!

-Let children count the number of beads one or 2  beads at a time for older children and begin  counting from 1  up to 100  depending on each childs capability.  Counting with objects create concrete thinking, thus forming a good fundamental for mathematics.

-Elders can also guide children to count the same colour bead as  specified and take turns.  This will help develop learning new mathematics vocabulary such as colours name numeration and comparison ( equal to more than or less than)

-The string attached enables children to carry the abacus wherever they desire.

-The base can also be adjusted.
