SIX CHILD USED ABACUS
HI, I'M A MOTHER OF SIX. FIVE OF THEM IN SCHOOL AGES THE YOUNGER IS A ONE YEAR OLD LITTLE BABY. I WANT TO TELL EVERYBODY HOW DURABLE AND STRONG THIS ABACUS IS. I BOUGHT IT SIX YEARS AGO WHEN MY FIRST GIRL (NOW IN FOURTH GRADE) NEED IT FOR THE KINDERGARDEN AND SHE USED IT ALL YEAR LONG. THEN THE NEXT YEAR MY SECOND GIRL (NOW IN THIRD GRADE) USED TOO. ALL THE OTHER MOTHERS WAS VERY INTERESTED IN THIS ABACUS BECAUSE ITS SIZE, ITS STRONG AND DURABILITY, SPECIALLY WHEN I TOLD THEM ABOUT THE HEREDITARY ABACUS. SO SAME AS THEIR OLDER SISTERS MY THIRD AND FOURTH GIRLS USED IT IN KINDERGARTEN AND NOW MY BABY BOY (A THREE YEARS OLD) IS USING IT. SO I HOPE THAT I NEVER WILL NEED TO BUY ANOTHER AND THAT MY LITTLE BABY GIRL WILL USE IT WHE SHE GOES TO KINDERGARDEN BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE NEW. I DON'T EXAGERATE WITH MY STARS I'M TRUE TO MY STORY.
ABACUS
Before we got a chance to review the instructions, my 51/2 yr old had begun to use the abacus for counting, adding, subtraction and even making pictures!!! My 2 yr old also enjoys the beads for colors and counting. Exactly what we'd hoped for! It's sturdy and large enough to be fun yet easily handled by the youngest.
Great
This is a great gift. My 4 year old and 2 year old love it. However, you should be warned that it is not the most durable. It came unglued at the bottom easily, and though it can be used the same as always, I feel it does not have the long life I would hope for.
