Por que funciona
Working memory is a critical component of cognitive ability that develops rapidly during the preschool years. Research demonstrates that working memory and attention control in pre-kindergarten predict growth in emergent literacy and numeracy skills and make unique contributions to kindergarten achievement (Welsh, Nix, Blair, Bierman, & Nelson, 2010). Strengthening working memory through playful activities supports the cognitive foundations that predict long-term academic success.
Dicas para os pais
Start with just four pairs to build confidence before adding more.
Name the items out loud when flipping them. This reinforces memory through language.
Let your child win sometimes. Focus on the fun of playing together rather than competition.
