These Memory Match I Try Skill Cards are a fun and easy way to help toddlers and early preschoolers practice important pre-reading skills. Recognizing shapes and sounds (by naming objects out loud), leads to recognizing more complex symbols such as letters and words. The 30 large picture cards (15 pairs) with rounded corners are easy for little hands to grasp and memorable illustrations and bright colors make them entertaining! A Parent Card includes suggestions for games and ideas that maximize play and learning. For a basic Memory Match game, turn all the cards face up for a good look. Then turn them back down, and begin flipping them over one by one to find matches. Mom or dad can play, an older sibling can guide a younger one. Pair up play and learning.
