FSC-certified wood, bright colors and rounded edges make it a friendly first math toy for home or preschool. Parents and kids can play together at the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: FSC-certified wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRods: colorful stainless steel guide rods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeads: brightly colored, smooth gliding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdges: smooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: non-toxic, no odor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat toddlers practice\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach row of beads gives a child something to count, compare and move. Sliding beads from one side to the other builds hand-eye coordination and finger control. Sorting by color teaches kids to tell shades apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rainbow layout also turns the abacus into a bead maze art project. Kids make patterns, stripes or a simple picture, then reset the beads and start again. That mix of play and learning keeps a toddler busy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to play together\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSit beside your child and count beads aloud as you slide them one at a time. Ask them to move three red beads, then two blue ones, and count the total. Older toddlers can try simple addition or copy a pattern you make. Name each color out loud as the beads move to build vocabulary at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe beads glide back and forth with little effort and are easy to spin and grip for small fingers. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth and dry it at once, since wood dislikes soaking. Keep the rainbow abacus on a low shelf so your child can reach it during free play. It also makes a birthday present for a toddler who is starting to count, and it fits well in a Montessori play corner next to puzzles and stacking toys.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DS-AMZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50654478336240,"sku":"AMZ-B09NVLR6ZS","price":64.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0434\/7985\/9361\/files\/61A9LZJhp_L._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1792810223","url":"https:\/\/www.bigfrenchies.com\/products\/ibwaae-wooden-rainbow-abacus-beads-counting-toys-kids-early-b09nvlr6zs","provider":"BIG FRENCHIES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
