Publisher's Synopsis
Learning math can be a real blast, when we take the 'math' out of it! This book uses a simplified version of the ancient abacus, which is the world's oldest manipulative. Our patented abacus-inspired abacus is called the JUNIOR COUNTER and the junior has helped hundreds of children develop their abilities to compute numbers mentally.
Manipulatives help children boost their ability to understand that symbols can represent numbers. Knowing this gives children the power to 'visualize to solve math equations.' Yes, even children as young as 3. Our book is full of hands-on, engaging learning and practice activities that will help your child discover their ability to add and subtract WITHOUT having to use their FINGERS, TOES or even a PENCIL. ALL while having TONS of FUN!
