What is Memory Game Stationery about?

Memory Game Stationery is a learning game for children aged 4 to 9 that helps them develop their memory, attention and sequencing skills while they learn the names and shapes of stationery.

It is a classic brain game: children look carefully, keep the pictures in mind and use their memory to find the right cards. The cover shows cards with a pencil case full of pencils, a pencil, a ruler and a sharpener: the things a child packs in their school bag or keeps on their desk. Each level brings a new challenge.

Knowing the names of everyday school things helps a child who is about to start nursery or school, and gives them words they will hear from their teacher every day. Parents can play the game, then let their child pack their own pencil case and name each thing as it goes in.

The pen has a special place in Islam. One surah of the Qur'an, Al-Qalam, is named after the pen, and it begins with Allah swearing by the pen and by what is written. Writing is how knowledge is kept and passed on, and it is how the Qur'an itself was written down. Children can hear that every time they pick up a pencil to learn, they are doing something Allah values.

Memory Game Stationery is a Miraj original.
