Active Hands
A carefully selected set of products to keep restless hands busy through playing different games, such as memory games, stories, sports or painting.
This activity set is great for keeping attention levels high and aid fine motor control skills in wrists and fingers, something that can deteriorate during the aging process. It is ideal for older people who find difficulty in keeping hands still. It is especially good for anyone with dementia or Alzheimer's.
It encourages interaction between players and stimulates the brain by partaking in different activities and games; such as the Memory Game. This involves laying the items on a table and allowing the players to look at the items for a few minutes. Then, ask them to close their eyes and take away one or two items. Next, ask the players to open their eyes and guess which items are missing.
