hand2mind Double Sided Abacus: Counting Beads Math Kit for Ages 3+

Helps kids easily transition from counting to adding and subtracting with our Double Sided Abacus! The front side of the abacus is for counting by colors and the back of the abacus is for finding number patterns using the traditional Rekenrek colors. Our Rekenreks and Abacuses are a tried-and-true way to deepen kids understanding of numbers, counting, addition, and subtraction. Children learn abstract number concepts with this 2-in-1 math tool. The multicolored rainbow math beads help kids to practice counting by 1s. Afterward, they transition to using the traditional red and white beads to deepen their ability to visualize and understand number patterns of 5 and 10. Our durable plastic frame is built for long-lasting use. It helps kids practice counting, patterning, addition, and subtraction without worrying about the abacus breaking down! For teachers, these counting manipulatives can work wonders in demonstrating number concepts for your students. Using an abacus to help teach kids math makes counting easier to learn without the mess or risk of losing stray counters. This Double Sided Abacus comes with a getting started guide that includes 5 teacher-developed activities.
