A Memory Game with Photos

I loved this memory game idea from Crafty Moms blog using the Kodak Photo Gallery. Memory is a popular game with preschoolers. You can buy them in stores, but the cards are usually small and cartoon related. One of the best ways to improve memory with children is to use objects that are real to them. By making a memory game with pictures of things in their life, they will probably be ultra successful at this game. Short term memory building is so important to learning!

All you do to create this lovely game is to print doubles of pictures from around your home or your family. You can either print them dark or patterned card stock (that way they cannot see through the paper) or glue them to card stock. You can even laminate them for extra durability or cover them with clear contact paper. Determine the amount you want- most preschoolers can start with 7 different pictures, and build up to more if desired (especially is you have older children). That is it! What a cute idea! It would also be a great gift idea for any child in your life- or for grandparents to play with their grandchildren at their home.
