FAQ

• Will my child really learn a language with MEMORA?

MEMORA doesn't replace complete immersion, but it does provide regular and natural exposure to a new language.

Thanks to the image + word association, the child creates a direct link to the meaning — exactly as in native language acquisition.

• Won't my child just focus on the images?

This is a normal — and even essential — stage.

The images serve as a comprehension aid.
Gradually, the child spontaneously associates the word with the image, then with the concept.

👉 This is how vocabulary becomes firmly established.

• Could it confuse them or mix up the languages?

No, quite the opposite.

Children have a natural ability to differentiate languages.
What is called "code-switching" (mixing languages within the same sentence) is a normal developmental stage.

👉 It shows that the brain is adapting, not that it is confused.

• From what age can MEMORA be used?

MEMORA is suitable from 2–3 years old, when the child begins to recognize images and memorize words.

It remains relevant up to 6–7 years old depending on the child's pace.
You can adapt the number of card pairs to use according to the child's age and cognitive abilities.

• Do parents need to speak the language?

Not at all.

MEMORA is designed to be used even if parents don't speak the language.

👉 You learn together, in a fun way.
You can rely on reliable translation tools if needed.

• How can MEMORA be used daily?

A few minutes are enough:

- play classic memory
- name the cards out loud
- repeat the words together

👉 What's important is regularity, not duration.

• How long should one play?

5 to 10 minutes a day is more than enough.

The goal is to create a simple and pressure-free habit.

• Should the words be translated?

It's not necessary.

👉 The child understands through images.
This avoids going through translation and promotes a more natural learning process.

• Does starting early really make a difference?

Yes.

The earlier a child is exposed to a language, the more intuitive and fluid their learning will be.
A child's brain is very flexible before the age of 6.

• What are the benefits of bilingualism in children?

Bilingualism is associated with:

- Better problem-solving abilities
- Stronger memory and greater mental agility
- Enhanced concentration and attention
- A more resilient brain against aging (particularly against Alzheimer's disease).
- A natural openness to the world and cultures

• What if my child mixes languages?

It's normal.

👉 It's part of the learning process.
Over time, languages naturally become structured.

• Why is MEMORA different from other games?

MEMORA is not just a memory game.

It was designed to:

- Introduce a language without pressure
- Foster natural learning
- Create a shared parent-child moment

• What is MEMORA's main objective?

To introduce children to a new language in a simple, fun, and natural way.

👉 Without screens, without constraints, without overload.

• Is MEMORA enough to become bilingual?

No — and that's not its goal.

MEMORA is a gateway to the language.
It complements other forms of exposure (books, songs, interactions...).

• Why was MEMORA created?

MEMORA was born from a conviction:

👉 Languages should not be limited. They do not compete — they coexist.
👉 They should be offered.

It is a tool designed to give children a chance to learn early, naturally.
