ABACUS Calculations, when done at a decent speed, have proven to be an excellent Brain Exercise generating activity. And when a child is exposed to Abacus Calculation Methods in the right manner during his/her formative years, it leads to development of exceptional mental abilities in the child.
Some of the important Direct & Indirect benefits of learning ABACUS calculation methods for a child are:
Playing with Numbers from an early age helps drive away or avoid the fear of dealing with larger numbers.
Confidence of playing with Numbers helps develop a liking towards learning various other Maths Concepts during Secondary & Higher-Secondary school years.
Regular exposure to Brain Exercise generated while doing Abacus Calculations at decent speed, helps improve the child's mental abilities in terms of Speed of Thinking, Alertness, Improved Memory & development of Visualisation ability.
There are several organisations offering ABACUS Courses across the country. As a parent, whenever you plan to admit a child to any ABACUS Course, here are a few important points you need to know:
Regular Practice of about 20 minutes every day is the MOST IMPORTANT requirement to maximise benefits for the child. Just attending the weekly class & preparing only for the exams will not help achieve the goal of Brain Development.
Abacus Class is generally just once-a-week at most centers. But the child needs to spare 20 minutes everyday for sincere Abacus Practice at home on other days.
It helps if a parent or an elder at home also takes interest in learning the Abacus methods & does practice with the child. I have created & shared all the Abacus Lesson Videos on my YouTube Channel to help anyone to Learn Abacus methods.
