DD started to play Dora and Princess Matching Games when she was 2 1/2 but I would only take 2-4 sets of cards out and work with them. She was 3 for Candy Land.
DD just turned 4. She's been playing candyland since and memory since about a month before she turned 3. Like pp we started with only a few sets of cards in memory, but now (this is a little embarrassing) she can beat me when I'm actually trying with the full deck.
Re: What age for Candy Land and Memory?
memory - 2 1/2
candy land - 2 1/2 for the plastic kind with the dispenser
3 for the regular kind
Ha! We have Candy Land and I would say don't open it until you are ready to commit to playing it 100x/day!

We have both games and I just opened them a month ago (ds is 3.3). I did just by Hi Ho Cherry O - so we will see how he does with this too.
