Trusted by 100+ families | Certified Instructors | Interactive Brain Training
At Innovative Generations in Sharjah, we offer powerful and engaging Mental Math and Rubik’s Cube Brain Development Programs for kids aged 4 to 15 years. Designed to boost brainpower while making learning fun, our programs help children enhance memory, improve focus, and sharpen problem-solving skills. Through our Abacus Mental Math training, kids learn to calculate quickly and accurately—without a calculator—by visualizing numbers and using hand movements that stimulate both sides of the brain.
At the same time, our Rubik’s Cube Program transforms play into skill-building, teaching logical thinking, pattern recognition, and spatial awareness as students master cubes of all kinds—from 3×3 to mirror. Whether your child is a beginner or ready for advanced challenges, our hands-on, expert-led approach ensures they grow in confidence, ability, and brain development every step of the way.
EXPLORE OUR Brain COURSES:
Abacus Mental Math Program
The Abacus Mental Math Program is a brain development initiative that uses mathematics as a tool to strengthen cognitive abilities through visualization and hand movement. Originating in Asia, the abacus has been widely recognized for stimulating whole-brain development.
By using their fngers to manipulate the beads, children establish a direct connection between motor activity and brain function. With consistent practice, students begin to visualize the abacus mentally—leading to fast, accurate calculations performed entirely within the mind, without any physical tool or calculator.
As students progress, they transition from using the physical abacus to mastering mental math through visualization alone. This process enhances not only mathematical skills but also promotes balanced development of both the left and right hemispheres of the brain.
Core Benefits of Abacus Training:
- Strengthens concentration and observation skills
- Enhances listening, processing, and comprehension of complex ideas
- Boosts focus, memory, and mental visualization
- Develops logical and analytical thinking
- Improves arithmetic understanding and mental calculation speed
- Encourages creativity and imagination
- Fosters discipline, confdence, and academic stamina
- Delivers fun and engaging learning that builds a strong foundation in math
Class Activities for Brain Development
Our program includes engaging activities designed to stimulate different areas of the brain and reinforce cognitive, motor, and creative skills. These tasks are integrated into lessons to support holistic development.
