We will keep adding to the list - some inputs from teachers have not be documented fully yet, but as they crystallize, we'll add them to this page.
The game should have support for the Devnagri script. Since the games will be created by the user, it can be either be assumed that the words are valid words from the language selected (risky, game creators can make mistakes!) or a dictionary check could be done for that language to validate the word (better option).

Memorize [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4063] is an existing Sugar activity - a memory game that requires the player to match pairs with tiles that are face down, so that besides knowing the matching tiles, the player is also required to remember the location of the tiles in case the match did not happen when the tiles were uncovered. For very small children, even the task of determining a matching pair can be difficult, so we need an identical game that can be played with tiles face up (not hidden). If you've schooled in India, this is similar to a 'Match the Following' kind of exercise that primary school children do.

The Memorize activity was cloned to another activity named 'TileMatch' that does as described above. This hasn't been released to the public on ALSO yet (some cosmetic cleaning up needs to be done) but you can preview it by downloading the .xo file ([[File:tilematch-01.xo]]) and loading it into Sugar.
