The abacus as it is made today has been in use for about 700 years. No, the abacus doesn't have the bells and whistles of today’s technology. However, these counting beads, rods, and horizontal structure make it a superior hands-on method for all forms of mathematical computation, from rudimentary arithmetic and beyond, to complex mathematical concepts. The beauty of today's abacus is that it easily adapts within the realm of childhood development. Toddlers to youngsters can develop hand-eye coordination that will be useful their entire lives. It allows young minds endless experimentation without the flashing lights and cajoling computer voices. Children rely on their own wits and wherewithal to figure with fun. The bright beads teach very young children to learn colors while applying the application of numbers. Technology is wonderful no doubt. Though it may have overshadowed the simple abacus, it can never diminish the sheer science and brilliance of a forever friend, the awe-inspiring abacus.Read full review

It is probably going to be durable but in the pictures it makes it look like the rod that holds the beads is metal which is what I thought I was getting.
