Kids Memory Game - Apps on Google Play
play.google.com
Spark little minds with a colorful card-matching adventure!

Hopefully it’s not against the rules, if so, please let me know and I’ll remove the post. Anyway:

I made an educational open source game for small kids (2-6 yo) where they can match cute animals (currently sea and dinosaur theme packs).

Features:

  • cute pictures
  • works on both a phone and a tablet
  • multiple theme packs
  • fully free, no tracking or anything
  • there are multiple flavours, one of which bundles all of the assets and doesn’t even have the permission to access the internet <- great if you’re extra cautious
  • big buttons, no reading necessary, small kids friendly

It can be downloaded both from GitHub and the Play Store.

    We’re talking about children whose brains are not yet fully developed, not teenagers or adults, and screens didn’t exist for children decades ago…

    The problem is new, not old.

    I don’t see the connection with the “weird guy”, I’m talking about health problems related to speech and intellectual abilities. It’s not a personality trait to have a mental delay, but a health issue…

      I split the problem into two parts in my previous comments:

      • Memory Match games are good for cognitive abilities
      • Screens either are or are not bad for intellectual abilities, depending on the study you choose to believe

      So it all depends on what you believe has a bigger impact even if you’re in the “all screen time is bad” camp. Anyway, I know I’m not gonna convince you and you’re not gonna convince me. It’s not like I never read anything and decided that I’ll base my opinions on my feelings only.

      I’m a firm believer that the problem is with parents not setting healthy boundaries for screen time, not the fact that a screen is showing some pictures.
