Memory Magic® Accelerated Learning Software Games for Children

[waterdreamer]

Wow I only used it for a short time but I found my son was not mature enough, I planned on introducing it again this month now that I think he could do it and I'm very ticked off to read this. I emailed the company and if I don't get a reply I will call them.
Thanks for the heads up

[waterdreamer]

Ok good news, I spoke to the company and they will be on here in the next day or so to explain what's going on. Apparently there will be links sent to everyone on how they can fix these errors. He will send me an email telling me which flash sets not to use till they can be fixed and the other parts of the games have been checked and are fine.
I'm so glad this can be fixed because I was really looking forward to using this with my son. They sounded like they were also interested in talking to parents on this forum if they have questions about using the program with their
children. So hopefully this will be all corrected soon.

Hello Everyone,

My name is Brad Davis, President of Mercury Learning Systems LLC, producers of Memory Magic. In the last two days we have been made aware of some spelling errors in 2-3 of our Flash'em game sets on the Deluxe CD. Thanks go out to the two parents who informed us. We wanted to clarify a few points for those who may be concerned about playing the games with your children:

1. Silly Story and Follow That Dot games are not affected.

2. Of the 38 Sets of 380 flash cards, 3-4 cards have misspelled object words. So, there are we believe there are 2-3 sets of the 38 sets parents should not show their children. We are in the process of identifying which sets are affected and will post here and email all when we know.

3. This means 35-36 sets are still fine to play - no misspelled words. Again, we will let you know which sets are affected just as soon as we find out.

4. Once we fix the 2-3 sets, we will send out a link for all to download replacement sets, which will replace the affected sets currently in your Memory Magic folder. It will be a very easy step.

To recap:
-Only 2 or 3 sets of the 38 sets in Flash'em are affected (2-3 cards).
-We will let you know which sets not to play as soon as we find out.
-We will send you a link to download the fixes.
-The affected cards/sets do not negate the tremendous value and learning experience gained by Memory Magic and do not affect the other games on this games CD.

Thank you all for your patience. We are committed to providing the very best learning experience for your children and we work hard to insure perfection in all our products.

Hello Everyone,

We investigated the misspelled words issue and found the only elements affected are the computer games. The words are correct in the Game Keys and the different sized printable playing cards, which are also on the Memory Magic Deluxe CD. The Sets affected are:

Animals Set 2: Dalmation - should be Dalmatian
Foods Set 2: Yellow Habenera Pepper - should be Yellow Habanera Pepper
Tools Set 6: Safty Pin - should be Safety Pin
Music Set 3: Accordian - should be Accordion

We will fix these misspellings and contact our membership with the download link and easy instructions to replace these 4 Sets in your Memory Magic Deluxe folder. We will also post the link on this forum.

Thank you for your patience!

Thank you for clearing that up. I look forward to the links to fix our CDROM. Is there a way to send the PDF to a place like Walmart to be printed on 4x6 print sheets. I think it would be cheaper for me then paying for ink, photo paper then laminating it.

Hi, This is Brad from Mercury Learning Systems. Yes, you can take the pdfs to WalMart, or anywhere you want to get prints made. Here's where the pdfs are on  your CD:

Memory-Magic-Deluxe folder : pdf folder : fc1.pdf (this is Animals Set 1), fc2.pdf (this is Animals Set 2), etc. up to fc9.pdf. Foods are fe1.pdf to fe6.pdf. Musical Instruments are fm1.pdf to fm8.pdf. Sports Equipment are fs1.pdf to fs7.pdf, and Tools are ft1.pdf to ft8.pdf. There are 38 sets in all for a total of 380 small cards for older children to adults and 380 large cards for small children, ages 6-8 mths up. If taking to WalMart for photo prints, we suggest having them print out the large cards onto 8 x 10 if possible.

Please don't hesitate to contact us with any other suggestions, questions or comments!

We love feedback!!!

Best regards,
Brad

Hi MemoryMagic,

I really appriciates your team for quickly fixing the spelling issue.
Thanks a lot for this.

MemoryMagic :
The threads on MemoryMagic products also discusses about the screen of the game.

The screen has the menus and other elements on the screen when the games are played
which may distract kid's attention from the game.

Can you change this interface. eg. When any game is started it should go in full screen mode
and when some key (eg Esc) is pressed it will return to Gaming Menu.

Thanks a lot to waterdreamer and Dr.Primo for contacting MemoryMagic and Karma to you both of you.
(I too had called them but due to my ascent we didn't had good conversation.)

Hi Brad,

Are there plans to make more games like Memory Magic?  My son loves the silly stories but he has gone through all of them and is now bored with it.  He keeps asking for more stories and loves the way they are presented in Memory Magic.

Regards,
Shen-Li.

I actually tried the Free rapid flashing and silly story games and was really amazed that my 8yr old son could remember the 10 objects that were rapidly flashed on the screen(less than 1 sec per object).
And he could remember 30 pictures of the silly story.
 
I never thougt this Rapid Flashing thing actually works.

I was wondering why they keep on saying that the faster you flash the better.

I think it's using the sub-concious part of yr brain to remember, since the pictures are flashing too quick for yr eyes to really focus/study them.

Hello,

According to Dr. Makato Shichida, right brain learning expert, rapid flashing stimulation bypasses the logical left brain functions which attempts to consciously remember and store the information. Rapid flashing stores the information in the part of our brain responsible for lightning-quick memory, mass-memory acquisition and calculation. Memory Magic games combine the best of right and left brain stimulation, strengthening and increased learning potential. In Flash'em, for example, you flash the objects first, then play the finding game. The finding game reinforces the connections between right brain (flashing) and left brain (recall from memory). This helps build strong synapse connections, which help the child learn anything faster and retain more.

Please feel free to email us with any more questions about Memory Magic games. Or, you can visit our web site for complete information and articles about how our games increase learning potential in powerful ways!

Yes!!! We have a folder with ideas for 50 or more accelerated learning games for children that no one has produced yet. Our brains are bursting with ideas! However, we are a small company with little time and money at our disposal. We are so passionate about these types of learning methods because we have seen incredible results never seen with other methods/games. We know the best ways to present them to children so their full learning potential can be released. Of course, the most important part of learning is love. The love of parents and a proper environment for children to learn in are most important as well. If you would like more information about ways to prepare a great learning environment, feel free to read our article at: http://acceleratedlearningmethods.com/the-learning-environment.html

Thank you,

Hi Brad,

This is just some feedback regarding the program. I like it overall, but the flashcard issue is a big downfall for me. Most parents have very little time for material preparation, including printing/laminating cards or taking them to a printer and paying an unknown expense to get everything printed out.

I would love it if there was an option to purchase the set with everything pre-printed or to be able to purchase the cards separately. I know it probably comes down to time, resources, and money, but maybe you could partner up with a printing service or something.

Thanks.

So in memory magic do they have dot cards?????And i even have 1 more question that in deluxe one they dont show Flashem like what we have in LR??? Like we have choice either to take printout of flashcards or either we can make our child to see those flashcards on computer .It is upto us right.So what about memory magic deluxe flashem ???? Is it something like that that we have to take printout of flashem and we cannot use it those flashem on dvd player or computer?????Pls guide.

Brad from Mercury Learning Systems here. This version of Memory Magic has no math dot cards. We will be producing other games using the method later. The CD does contain 4 eye-tracking cards though along with the Follow That Dot computer game. In Follow That Dot, your child follows a dot forming an invisible pattern, then tries to find that pattern in a finding game. It helps develop eye-tracking for speed reading later in development as well as lightning-fast memory and visual memory.

With the Flash'em games, you can play the computer games or print out the different-sized Flashing cards to use with your child. There are 5 different categories of cards in 38 sets of 10. Total number of cards is 380. The categories are: Animals, Foods, Tools, Sports Equipment and Musical Instruments. Each card has from 4-9 interesting facts about the object on the fronts. On the CD is also instructions for playing several interesting accelerated learning games with your child or even adults - the whole family.

All the computer games are played on computer only because they are highly interactive. Flash'em computer games flash up to 10 objects at a time very rapidly. It also flashes the associated word and says the word too so your child receives several types of brain stimulation with this game. All the sets of 10 objects in the computer games correspond to the Flashing cards you can print out.

Also, one mother suggested taking the cards to a cheap photo printer and having photo prints made of them rather than printing them out from your home printer.


I hope this helps answer your questions.

Hi,

We had the cards priced from 3 different commercial printers and the cost was way too high. They would be unaffordable for parents to purchase. So, our best option to  put them in pdf format on the CD so parents could still get them. The value we passed on in this product is tremendous . Each of the 38 sets comes in 2 different sizes for the different accelerated learning games and each card has unique facts on the backs. Because each card is unique and in different sizes, this makes printing them commercially very expensive. Our Singapore partner also wanted to print the cards and found the same price restrictions. So, again, our next best option was to provide them on the CD. The cards to come in sets of 10 though so you can print out a set at a time. Yes, perhaps we can team up with a printer. We'll look into that option. Thank you for the suggestion.

With regards the flashcard issue. There were only 4 words out of 380 with issues and they were not major misspellings. The issue was only in the one computer game and not any of the printable cards or game keys. Bugs in game programs do happen and we fixed the issue within 2 days of hearing of it.

Thank you for your comments and thank you for your understanding! We work hard to provide the best learning experience and great value for your children.
