Answer 1

They can play Go-Fish in which they have to work on their memory in order to win the game.

Answer 2

there are 2 types of memory, short-term and long-term. generally memory is affected by many factors, including attention and interest.  there are individual differences and it really depends on the child's inherent abilites.

for young children, u can have an idea of their memory through daily activities. for example, u can ask them what stories they heard in kindergarten that day (short-term memory). a good way to enhance their short-term memory is to recall a story u jus read at the end of it. or recall some important/special event.
