It can tell a child which object is heavier but not by how much. It can tell a student if the objects are equal in weight. What ever is being measured has to be small enough to fit into the little containers, so beans, rice or very small blocks would work. **Q: I am in need of two replacement buckets for the balance. Are the buckets available seperatly?** A: I have never seen them sold separately **Q: I want to use this in my classroom - 1st graders - any teachers out there who are using it - your thoughts? Thank you!** A: I bought it to use at home with my then first grader.... With this tool students will be able to tell which object/thing is heavier and if they are equal... that's about it. If you have super small objects to use that may allow you to have a deeper discussion about how the weight is changing. I have found that most objects I wanted to use were too large for the containers or immediately changed it from too big on the left to too big on the right. **Q: Is this a clock of scale? the item description indicates it's a clock** A: No, there is no clock in the scale set. This is an error in the posting. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant and educational *by A***R on 25 July 2012* I bought this for my 2 1/2 year old daughter and she loves playing with it we have had this out most days weighing different items from around the house.

Would recommend ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ok *by K***1 on 18 June 2019* A good idea but fiddly to use. Would quite a 7+ not a 5 year old. The buckets come off really easily and the balance Mark is hard to see would be better a different colour. The kids don't fit well. It suggests you use for liquids too i wouldn't unless you really want a mess to clean up! ## Frequently Bought Together - Learning Resources Primary Bucket Balance Teaching Scale - 1 Piece, Ages 3+, Math for Preschoolers, Classroom Balance Scale, Balance Scale for Kids, Science for Kids,Back to School Supplies - Learning Resources STEM Explorers -Ages 5+, Magnet Movers, Critical Thinking Skills, STEM Certified Toys, Magnets Kids,Magnet Set,Back to School Supplies,39 Pieces - Learning Resources Primary Science Jumbo Magnifiers with Stand - 6 Pieces, Ages 3+, Science Classroom Accessories, Teacher Supplies, Observation Toys for Kids, Back to School Supplies --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/48271962-learning-resources-primary-bucket-balance-age-3-classroom-balance-scale](https://www.desertcart.us/products/48271962-learning-resources-primary-bucket-balance-age-3-classroom-balance-scale) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-18*
