Did you know that over 90% of a child’s brain develops before the age of five? The early years of life form the foundation for how a child learns, thinks, and interacts with the world. That’s why early brain development for children is one of the most important investments any parent can make.
At SIMA Abacus & Mental Maths Academy, we use a proven method — the Abacus — to stimulate both sides of the brain, helping children reach their full intellectual potential during these critical years.
1. The Science Behind Early Brain Development
A child’s brain is like a sponge in the early years — it absorbs information rapidly. During this period, billions of neural connections are formed based on the child’s experiences, environment, and stimulation.
If properly nurtured, these connections become the building blocks for intelligence, creativity, and emotional stability.
This is why at SIMA Abacus, our programme is designed to stimulate brain activity through visualization, rhythm, and mental calculation exercises that strengthen both the left (logical) and right (creative) hemispheres of the brain.
💡 Research shows that children exposed to brain-stimulating activities early perform better academically and socially throughout life.
2. How Abacus Learning Enhances Brain Growth
The abacus is more than a counting tool — it’s a brain development instrument.
When children manipulate the abacus, they use both hands, which activates both sides of their brain. As they progress to imagining the abacus mentally, their visualization, concentration, and memory skills grow stronger.
This continuous mental exercise builds new neural pathways, improving speed, accuracy, and problem-solving abilities — all essential for lifelong learning.
At SIMA Abacus, we’ve seen children as young as four show remarkable improvement in focus, creativity, and confidence after just a few months of training.
3. Why Start Early?
The earlier a child begins brain-based learning, the more powerful the results.
Between ages 3–10, the brain’s ability to form new connections (known as neuroplasticity) is at its peak. Introducing abacus learning during this stage strengthens mental flexibility and lays a strong foundation for academic excellence.
Children who start early often develop:
- Better concentration and emotional control
- Strong memory and reasoning power
- Faster mental calculation ability
- Greater confidence in learning and problem-solving
✨ Simply put, starting early helps children grow into smarter, more capable, and well-rounded individuals.
4. Abacus and the Whole Brain Approach
At SIMA Abacus, we emphasize Whole Brain Development — training both sides of the brain for balanced intelligence.
While the left brain focuses on logic, numbers, and reasoning, the right brain handles creativity, imagination, and emotion.
Our abacus methodology harmonizes both, ensuring your child doesn’t just memorize facts, but truly understands and creates.
That’s the power of early brain development — it helps children think, innovate, and adapt with confidence.
5. Laying a Strong Foundation for the Future
Early brain development determines how children learn later in life. A strong foundation in cognitive, social, and emotional skills equips them for success in academics and beyond.
By enrolling your child in SIMA Abacus, you are giving them more than an educational advantage — you’re shaping a mind capable of achieving great things.
🌱 The seeds of greatness are planted early. Nurture your child’s potential today.
Early brain development for children is not a luxury — it’s a necessity. Every mental activity your child engages in now shapes who they’ll become tomorrow. Abacus learning provides a fun, proven, and highly effective way to activate the brain’s full capacity.
At SIMA Abacus & Mental Maths Academy, we’re passionate about helping children develop faster, think smarter, and grow stronger — one bead at a time.
Start your child’s brain development journey early!
