Memory Games
Playing memory games is not only fun for children of all ages in the Montessori classroom, they also provide an opportunity for developmental growth. Memory games can improve brain functions and lead to better retention, attention, and concentration, all while lengthening focus. They also help children identify patterns and make connections through the details of each card. This helps to nurture a child's attention to detail.
The Color Match and Memory Game is a wonderful extension for the student who is working on learning the names of colors. This work has knobs to promote the development of a strong pincer grip. It is also beautifully crafted out of wood, making it a material that will last for years in the classroom.

Are you spotting more animal tracks in the muddy puddles of spring? Bring the exploration into the classroom with two animal print works. The Animal Tracks Wood Memory Set is a perfect learning opportunity that pairs well with the Animals and Footprint Sensory Stones.
This week's worksheet is a perfect parallel activity to Montessori N' Such's Number Memory Game. Expand your student's ability to recognize quantity through matching the same quantities in different patterns.
