Why Choose a Soroban?
The soroban is an excellent tool for children eager to learn calculation. This Japanese abacus enables learners to understand and master the decimal system while having fun! The word "soroban" means "counting board" in Japanese and, although primarily used in Japan, it is gaining worldwide popularity every year!
There are various types of sorobans, but when people say soroban, they usually refer to the standard model with beads sliding on wires. The standard soroban features 13 horizontal rods.
Soroban vs. Classic Abacus
This type of abacus is ideal for teaching children how to calculate. It is easy for kids to learn because it follows a decimal system. All numbers are represented by a combination of just three beads: one for units, tens, hundreds, and thousands. Each bead represents a power of 10.
The simplicity of this system is one reason soroban remains an effective everyday calculation tool for trade and commerce.
