Abacus is a calculative tool that is used as a counting frame. It is an ancient tool that was prominently in use before the invention of the currently used numeric system. Though the numeric system has taken over the use of Abacus widely, Abacus has its unique benefits because of which it is still preferred to be used in many cultures. It is extremely beneficial to children and the use of Abacus from an early age helps the growth of brain. Abacus is also useful for adults as it engages our analytical skills to optimise the use of cognitive functions of the brain. Abacus calculations not only helps to boost the brain power, but also helps in improving concentration, learning ability, memory power, speed & accuracy, listening power, etc. It is good to introduce abacus learning around the age of 5 years, when the child already knows the basic number system to a certain extent. Abacus learning makes the child more confident by improving the speed and accuracy in calculations. This in turn helps to build the child’s overall personality. This combo of Abacus and workbook is really beneficial for the child as he/she can practice with the workbook along with learning Abacus.
