What is Memory Game Yummy Yums about?
Memory Game Yummy Yums is a learning game for children aged 4 to 9 in which they test their memory with pictures of foods and drinks, from a jar of honey to a doughnut with sprinkles.
It is a classic memory game, the kind of "brain" game that asks children to look carefully, remember what they have seen and find it again. The cover shows an ice-cream sundae, a slice of cake with a cherry on top, a jar of honey and a pink doughnut on cards scattered among question marks. Each level brings a new challenge, so children can begin with an easy round and move on as they improve.
As they play, children learn the shapes and names of foods and drinks. The game practises memory, attention and sequencing, and food is a subject every child can talk about, at breakfast, at the shops or at a party.
The honey on the cover is a good place to start a talk about thanking Allah for our food. In the Qur'an, Allah tells of the bee, which He taught to make honey, a drink of many colours with healing in it for people. Parents can share a spoonful of honey with their child, say Bismillah before eating and Alhamdulillah afterwards.
Memory Game Yummy Yums is a Miraj original. The same foods appear in the Yummy Yums Challenge Game and the word book Fun Words: Yummy Yums.
