Game to train episodic memory in children: Learning Names

Today we present a new game to work on episodic memory in children called Learning Names.

What does this activity for working episodic memory in children involve?

It happens to all of us that when we meet someone new, especially if there are several people at once, it’s hard to remember names. Therefore, we have created this activity so that children memorize the names of the people shown and associate each name with their corresponding faces.

The names are written, but by simply pressing the audio icon associated with them, the child can hear them spoken aloud.

In this way, besides working on two input channels of information when memorizing (visual and auditory), it eliminates the problem that may exist for those children who have not yet learned to read or have difficulties in this area.
