Learning Resources Beginner's Balance - Ages 4+ Early Childhood Education Materials, Toddler Learning Toys

This is great scale for teaching Algebra. It is sensitive enough to move for a small item like a paper clip.

It’s not fun to play with for my kid.

Fun interactive learning toy. My son loves it.

Exactly what I was looking for. Easy to use and the kids love the bears, although we don't plan to use then for our actual lesson.

It's okay. Either the weights are off or the scale is fundamentally flawed. If you put two equal weights on each side, the scale will tip depending on where each one is place on the plates. The heavier weights are exponentially noticeable. It's actually quite perturbing to allow a young mind to learn so primitively, but I suppose the idea of this product is to simply introduce the concept of weight and balance. Because of that very basic introduction to a basic concept, I don't entirely hate the product.

Balance does not work properly. Had to return. Not well made. Faulty weight balance. Really disappointed for the price of the product.

With nothing on it at all, this balance is not balanced. Obviously it is for kids but even with the sliders, I can't get it even close to even. The quality is mediocre made with cheap plastic but seems like it will hold together for what it is used for. Two stars. Would have been one but my son loves it and it does kind of balance when the bears are on it.

I generally love Learning Resources products, but this balance was poorly designed. When the children place the bears on it the other bears slide off.
