    Skills to be developed with Shichi Duck Balance Scale

    • Understanding of Weight: Light vs Heavy

      Children learn to compare objects and grasp the concept of "light" and "heavy" through hands-on play. Using the balance scale helps them experience differences in weight, laying the foundation for logical thinking and problem-solving.

    • Early Maths Foundations: Real Numbers

      By comparing weights, children start to understand the concept of real numbers. This progresses to associating weights with numerical values, helping them visualise and understand basic math operations like addition and subtraction.

    • Critical Thinking Through Comparison

      Through trial and error, children explore different weight combinations to balance the scale. This encourages critical thinking, as they think, test, and confirm results in a fun and interactive way.

    How to use Shichi Duck Balance Scale

    • Start by Exploring the Scale

      Show your child how the balance scale works. Add a weight to one side and watch it tip. Then try adding a weight to the other side to see if it balances.

      Use simple words like “heavier” and “lighter” to describe what’s happening. It’s a great way to introduce the idea of balance in a way they can see and feel.

    • Match Weights with Number Blocks

      Place a number block on one side of the scale, for example, the number “4.” Ask your child to add Shichi Duck weights to the other side until the scale is balanced.

      This helps them understand what numbers mean by connecting them to real objects they can count and hold.

    • Try Fun Unique Weights

      Use the activity book to solve different puzzles together. Or make up your own! Try asking, “What happens if we add another weight?” or “How many ducks do you think we need to balance this number?”

      Let your child test their ideas using the scale, it’s a fun way to learn through discovery.

    • Practice Simple Addition and Subtraction

      The balance scale is perfect for early maths.

      Try something like this: place 2 duck weights on one side and a number “5” block on the other. Ask, “How many more ducks do we need to make it even?”

      Let your child experiment and figure it out. Once it balances, say together, “2 plus 3 equals 5!”
