I really like the counting pegs for Kindergarten. The tactile motion of putting the pegs in as they count will support improving their fine motor skills as well as the counting. This is going on my wish list.

I really love how the cards for the golden beads can stack on top of each other. I like that they can also quickly show the expanded form. Since I already have the base ten blocks I would create my own cards that can stack and expand and color coordinate them with the base ten blocks.

These are great! Never heard of these tools before, but I definitely see their value. Thank you for introducing me to them!

The last one is an abacus without the frame.

Do you ever use an abacus?

There looks like there is room for two numerals in the wooden peg blocks.

Are there exercises for older students?

Looks like the odd # pegs are round and the even # s are square.
