It helps tremendously

I have been using a pen and post-it to make hash marks for each type of item I'm putting in the washing machine that should NOT go in the dryer. I do this for each load that has any non dryer items. This is because I would forget all the items then mistakenly run them through the dryer and ruin them. Every load required cross outs and re-tallies. Then I would run out of space on one post-it and start again with writing categories PANTS: ||| TOPS: || etc. I bought this abacus to keep track without writing stuff down and crossing out. I labeled the rows with types of clothing. For each pair of pants that I want to pull from the dryer I move one blue bead to the side. For each top I move a red bead to the side. Then when I'm moving most of the load to the dryer I can make sure I have all the non-dryer items pulled out for hanging up. It's really tidy, easier than writing, reusable. I made the labels with a labeler that plugs into the computer that allows pics to be pasted in. Then do an image search for "free black white outline icon +shirt" or "...+pants". Then make labels (see pics). Also since the beads slide around easily if bumped, I bought these extra wide miniature clothespins. They're 1/2" wide and 1.75" long - don't get the skinny ones because they flip 90 degrees when you try to open them . My dad (the industrial engineer) would be proud. We plan to build a nice laundry / utility room soon. This is getting shelf space for sure.

Ordered 2 and both arrived broken. The wooden beads are very small and made of poor quality wood resulting in beads that break easily.

Abacus is nice but the prices aren’t glued in. The bar came off the other side & the beads started to fall off.

This Sealive Wooden Abacus is a great little math tool, especially for homeschool or desk-based learning. One thing I immediately noticed is that it’s smaller than a traditional classroom-sized abacus — and for us, that’s actually a big plus. It fits perfectly on a desk or table without taking up too much space, making it ideal for one-on-one instruction or independent practice. The 50 colorful beads slide smoothly across the rods and are easy for small hands to move. The bright colors help keep younger kids engaged while they practice counting, grouping, and basic addition and subtraction. It’s simple, but that’s part of its strength — it keeps the focus on learning fundamentals. The wooden frame feels sturdy enough for everyday use, and the overall design is clean and functional. It’s lightweight but stable when sitting flat on a surface. Pros: Compact size is great for desks and homeschooling Bright, engaging colors Beads move smoothly Encourages hands-on math learning and fine motor development Cons: Smaller than a standard classroom abacus (may not be ideal for group visibility) Overall, this is a practical, well-sized learning tool that works especially well in a homeschool setting or for small-group learning at the table.

This product is very good and practical; my son loved it. It's great because they can learn to count to 100 and it's also very fun. I highly recommend it.

I am pleases with what I odered.
