My sister would like a tool to help her create games for her daughter, for example a memory game with her own images. I know there are some simple tools like Kodu, but they seem to be aimed at action games. Does anyone know of a tool which might fit her needs? Thanks.

Scratch is a pretty interesting tool. It looks like it could make a very wide range of game types.

I think Game Maker will work fine for general purpose 2D game making

Why would you direct someone that's looking for a simple tool for non-programmer to DirectX?

Flash is kind of expensive, but you could probably do that with minimal programming.

Never used gamemaker, so I can neither recommend nor advise against it. She might want to look into Kodu as it seems like it would be fun to mess with; even though it isn't really 2D.

Thanks. This looks promising. I sent her the link. And thanks for the other suggestions, guys.
