Learning with dad - a smart start to life, part 7

Today's activity in our "learning with dad series" is actually a pretty cool game you can play as a whole family. It's a memory game where you show your little champ (or everyone) a selection of objects (e.g. toys, household objects, etc) and then cover them up with a blanket. Then ask them what they remember (if you are playing this as a family with older kids or adults - get everyone to write down what they remember).

A variation of the game is where you first show all objects and then get everyone to cover their eyes (or blindfold them) and remove an object. Then ask your child (or the whole family) what's missing. You can gradually increase the difficulty of the game by using a wider selection of objects and removing more items.

Enjoy!
