A memory game apparatus for educating children, comprising

• a first sock and a second sock, each comprising an open end and a closed end distal to the open end, a first side and a second side opposite the first side;
• a first sock symbol located on the first side of the first sock and oriented with a top of the first sock symbol oriented toward the closed end of the first sock;
• a second sock symbol located on the second side of the first sock toward the closed end of the first sock and oriented with a bottom of the second sock symbol toward the closed end of the first sock;
• a third sock symbol located on the first side of the second sock and oriented with a top of the third sock symbol oriented toward the closed end of the second sock;
• a fourth sock symbol located on the second side of the second sock toward the closed end of the second sock and oriented with a bottom of the fourth sock symbol toward the closed end of the second sock;
• wherein bending an end of the first sock toward the first side at a location below the second sock symbol inverts the second sock symbol and places the second sock symbol and a portion of the second side in a position to be viewed from the first side of the first sock,
• wherein bending an end of the second sock toward the first side at a location below the fourth sock symbol inverts the fourth sock symbol and places the fourth sock symbol and a portion of the second side in a position to be viewed from the first side of the second sock,
• wherein the first sock symbol differs from the second sock symbol and wherein the first sock symbol and the second sock symbol are related to a same sock topic;
• wherein the third sock symbol differs from the fourth sock symbol and wherein the third sock symbol and the fourth sock symbol are related to a same sock topic, and
• wherein one or more of the first and second sock symbols of the first sock are related to one or more of the third and fourth sock symbols of the second sock through a same sock pair topic.
