Discount Aba-Conundrums

Customer Ratings:

We bought this for our seven year old daughter and really like it. The Abacus is simple and easy to jump right into using. The book is filled with problems that challenge your learner and give them a feeling of accomplishment. The dry erase feature of the book is nice and it does actually erase well so you can do the problems again and again. This sort of problem solving is great for a child's mind and for their self confidence. As a homeschooling family that believes in hands on learning and life experiences we found this to be a great tool to have on hand.

First of all, this is a great product. Being involved with teaching the JapanMath website and program, I could tell you that this type of Abacus is a Japanese abacus which we teach in the JapanMath program called a Soroban. A Soroban of this size and with only 7 rods is great for the beginner. The fact that they give you some problems to go along with it is great. I could recommend this product for prek thru adult as a beginner Abacus (Soroban). One more note: a Chinese abacus has 5 beads on the bottom and two on top and Japanese abacus has 4 beads on the bottom and 1 on top.

Fun math game really gets the noggin working! Bought for a math challenged child. It has been a fun and educational purchase, something she asks to play with as a break from homework. May need adult help to get started.

Honest reviews on Aba-Conundrums

Would rate 5 stars if the abacus was higher quality or if it included Abacus instructions, it does include background (history) of the abacus, but not how to uses it for multiplication etc.. The Logic puzzles are fun

I have been looking and looking to find something that I would be able to use with younger children. The abacus tool itself is fine but the book does not go into enough detail on how much the heavenly beads are worth or the earthly beads. So if I didn't know already I would not understand the value.
