DIY Arabic Alphabet Memory Game

Assalamu Alaikum!

In this post we will be showing you how we made this simple memory game craft. We think it is especially fun for younger children who are learning the Arabic alphabet. Let's begin!

For this project you will need:-

plain card

pencil
pen
ruler
colour-pencils


First draw 4 rows of 7 rectangles on two A4 sized cards. You should have 56 rectangles in total, 28 on each card.

Go over your lines in pen.

Next write out the alphabet. (You can also write out the pronunciation of the letter in English.)

Go over the letters in a thick pen.

You could be done at this step, but we went ahead and drew some designs around the letters and coloured them in to make them more colourful.

Then cut them out and you're ready to play. It could also double as a jigsaw, since all the pieces need to be arranged in the correct order to see the full design!

To play:

Shuffle the cards face-down and then line them up.

Players take it in turns to flip two cards at a time and then turn them back face-down.

The aim of the game is to try and remember the letters on the cards that you see and collect as many pairs as you can.

Have fun playing with your new game! It would also make a nice handmade gift for a toddler. See you next week, insha'Allah!

Wassalam,
