Toddlers are amazing! They are like sponges, absorbing every bit of information from their environment and from the people around them. For parents and caregivers, there are many ways to help toddlers foster skills that work alongside their developing brain. One of them is using flashcards like First 100 Matching Card Game.

First 100 Matching Card Game is based on the bestselling board book First 100 Words by Roger Priddy. The First 100 Word Card Game takes the learning experience from the books to the next level, as little ones engage in hands-on learning activities that help develop vocabulary, counting, shapes and more.

There are various themed packs to choose from, including animals, alphabet and words, and each pack of cards features bold, colourful images that encourage learning through play with plenty of word / picture association. Each pack contains 48 cards (24 pairs) and instructions.

“The First 100 Matching Card Game is ideal for caregivers and parents who want to infuse fun and colour into learning. The cards can be used as flashcards, as matching cards and more. Perfect for ages two and up, the cards are made for small hands and after play, can be packed away in their sturdy box,” says Philip Galliford, spokesperson for Solarpop.

What are the benefits of playing matching games with toddlers?

  • Playing with flashcards provides opportunity to repeat words and model sentences.
  • They are great for building a child’s vocabulary by introducing them to new words.
  • Matching the images helps to teach the concepts of ‘same’ and ‘different’.
  • Matching card games benefit toddlers by improving the cognitive skill of problem-solving, which is crucial for early mathematics.
  • Playing a matching game encourages short term memory, observation and attention skills. When the child becomes more confident matching the pairs face up, you could flip the cards over for more of a challenge.
  • The games help develop fine motor skills and social skills through turn-taking and interaction.
