So much fun and learning in one toy😍
I ordered this educational toy for my daughter who just started forat grade and she absolutely loves it! It’s not only fun but also a great way to help her learn counting, addition and subtraction in a hands-on way. The size is perfect, not too big, easy to hold and fits nicely on her desk. The colors are bright and cheerful which makes learning even more exciting. I was really impressed with the stability and safety - it’s made of solid wood , stands firmly. It feels very well made and durable. Overall I’m happy with this purchase, it’s cute, educational and high-quality - everything we were looking for. Highly recommend to all parents with little learners💕

Great toy! Safe, educational, & eye-catching.
What a great product! You can feel the heft & quality when you pick it up. The beads and colors are secure (safe!) and beautiful. It can take the rough & tumble of little hands. Melissa & Doug know how to craft a solid toy.

Perfect for teaching numbers
I absolutely love the Melissa & Doug Abacus! It’s such a simple yet effective way to help kids learn counting and math basics. The bright, colorful beads are really eye-catching, and my little one enjoys sliding them back and forth while practicing numbers. The wooden design feels sturdy and durable, so I know it’ll last for years.

3歳の子供のために購入しました。 はっきりした色のカラフルなそろばんで見てるだけでも楽しいです。 大きさも大きめで、我が家にはちょうどいい大きさです。 親子で数を数えたりして遊んでいます。
