The best Mother's Day gifts for a lot of mothers are time and attention, and a memory match is a small, genuine way to spend both: ten minutes side by side, one tablet between two, with the flower and garden decks doing the decorating.
The easy board is deliberately grandparent-friendly, which matters here — three generations round one device, youngest against oldest, is the good version of the morning.
And for children planning the surprise themselves: the game needs no reading, no setup and no help, which makes it one of the few gifts a six-year-old can give independently.
Choose your difficulty
Every mother's day game runs at three levels — easy, medium and hard — switched inside the game at any time. Start easy for little ones, or jump to hard if you fancy the challenge.
