What is Memory Game Arabic Letters about?
Memory Game Arabic Letters is a learning game for children aged 4 to 12 in which they test their memory with the letters of the Arabic alphabet, and learn their shapes and names along the way.
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 Arabic letters on bright cards, among them seen and ghayn, scattered among stars and question marks. Each level brings a new challenge, so children can begin with an easy round and move on as they improve.
The game practises memory, attention and sequencing. At the same time, it helps children recognise each letter by its shape, which is the first step to reading Arabic. Many letters look alike and differ only in their dots or a small curve, so looking closely at them on a card, and remembering where each one was, is good practice for the page.
Arabic is the language of the Qur'an, and many Muslim children learn their letters at home, at the masjid or at weekend school. A memory game is a gentle way to go over them between lessons. After playing, parents can ask their child to name the letters they remembered, write one or two of them, or find them in a qaida or a copy of the Qur'an.
Memory Game Arabic Letters is a Miraj original. Memory Game Arabic Numbers does the same for the Arabic numbers.
