"Manipulatives" (as a plural noun) is obviously a made-up word, derived from the adjective "manipulative" in reference "objects to be manipulated," meaning to be handled with intentionality and contrl.

With that in mind, one issue that you will probably address in your translation is whether it is necessary in your judgment to keep the Arabic term within the bounds of one word only. The suggestions above are based on the assumption that such a solution would be highly desirable. Like "manipulatives," all the suggestions above are expected to sound "made-up" and awkward.
