Frequently asked questions
How long should my child look before covering the pictures?
Start with 20–30 seconds. When it gets easy, shorten the time or add more pictures (higher level).
How do we play the memory game?
Print the sheet twice, cut out the cards and lay them face down. Players turn over two cards — if they match, they keep the pair.
Who are these activities for?
Preschoolers and early primary children, especially those with reading difficulties, ADHD or autism who benefit from short, concrete tasks.
