What is Yummy Yums Challenge Game about?
Yummy Yums Challenge Game is a learning game for children aged 4 to 9 in which they test their knowledge of foods and drinks by listening carefully and tapping the right picture.
The cover shows three treats in a row of boxes: a pink doughnut with sprinkles, a slice of layered cake with a cherry on top and a tall milkshake with a straw. Children listen, look at the pictures in the boxes and tap the right one. At the end of the game, they see their score, and they can play again to beat it.
It is a simple game with a clear goal, and it teaches the names of foods and drinks children meet every day, at home, at the shops and at parties. Careful listening is the key to a good score.
Sweet treats are also a good way to talk about balance. Allah gives us good food to enjoy, and the Qur'an tells us to eat and drink but not to go too far. A doughnut at a party is a gift to be thankful for; a doughnut at every meal is too much. After the game, parents can ask their child which foods are everyday foods and which are treats, and remember to say Bismillah before eating and Alhamdulillah afterwards.
Yummy Yums Challenge Game is a Miraj original. The same foods appear in Memory Game Yummy Yums and the word book Fun Words: Yummy Yums.
