For your child, the abacus will be a true factor in their success.

Why use an abacus?

Arithmetic is an abstract concept; numerous studies have shown that children aged 9 and under often have difficulty visualizing abstract concepts similar to arithmetic. These difficulties can lead to a range of issues, from a mild aversion to mathematics in less severe cases, and can result in loss of confidence and even academic failure, even among intelligent children. Performing calculations on an abacus will help your child understand numbers and create mental structures that will support them throughout their schooling and beyond.

The abacus: an ancient tool still relevant today.

Children who use the abacus during their learning generally achieve significantly higher scores in IQ assessments and surpass those studying with the most modern and experimental educational methods.

The abacus benefits its users beyond mathematics:

Using the abacus supports children’s memory in two ways. Firstly, the child will no longer need to memorize answers to arithmetic exercises. Once the student has learned how to use the abacus, they will know how to solve any arithmetic problem. There will be no need to memorize solutions or steps, as the method remains consistent. Secondly, the abacus helps their memory by allowing them to clearly see how they arrived at the result. By understanding how calculations and numbers work, they can visualize how different problems are solved. Once the student knows how to solve a problem, they no longer need to keep the steps in their short-term memory. Children tend to learn problems rather than develop methods to solve them, leading to a form of rote learning that is not always easily noticeable. This issue is easily resolved by using an abacus, as it promotes an intuitive and effective understanding of arithmetic.

From kindergarten to high school, the abacus offers clear value to the student who uses it.

The classic Western abacus is the easiest type for young children to understand. It provides an easy and effective introduction to the world of mathematics. With its quality wooden frame, it is both durable and environmentally friendly. Bright and attractive colors from non-toxic paint and varnish. A robust design that withstands children’s wear and tear.
