I homeschool my children. My 7yo was having a hard time understanding why borrowing/regrouping works but this made it "click" within 10 minutes, so much so that he can do many problems in his head now. I can think of many other concepts where these will be helpful and plan to get many years of use from these (he is the oldest of 5). Wish I'd gotten them 2 years ago. Our former math curriculum used dimes and pennies to teach place value but these manipulatives are much more intuitive.

This base 10 kit has enough of all the pieces (units, rods, flats) to accomodate all the teaching and learning needs of addition/subtraction and other areas of math like perimeter and area. Quick shipping too!

It's a great educational product. My only two complaints are the packaging and the activity guide. I thought it was going to include some kind of storage case, but it didn't. It just came in plastic bags. I'll just keep it in the cardboard box it came in, for now. The activity guide is one sheet of paper folded in half with few suggestions. I confused activity guide with activity book so I was disappointed when I saw the guide and not the book. Beside those two complaints, this product is great and I'm glad I made the purchase.

Very Beneficial
This is a very practical hands on tool for teaching basic number concepts. Our granddaughter uses it to trade ones for ten rods and then trade ten rods for a hundred flat. Read more

Takes Time
Nice set, has all you need, and the booklet seems useful. But it's no magic bullet. You have to give it time and attention.

Eh...
Expected more, quality-wise, from a product that cost so much. Cheaply made. Does the job, but not worth the money.
