Rhyming Riddles - LIGHT

I used this as a warm up activity for my community 'cognitive stimulation therapy' programme for people with mild to moderate dementia. I called out the question and all participants correctly guessed some of the rhyme answers; between them all 20 were answered correctly, with only a couple of misses with words that did not rhyme with “light”. It was great to see some of the quieter participants having the confidence to answer.

Thank you so much Talita I’m so delighted I came across your web site I’m starting out as activities coordinator and I have used some of your free activities great feed back from clients

Hi Lora

I must commend your efforts

Helping a person with dementia is not easy

I am glad you are a member of golden Carers because there are many good ideas here

A person you hire does not always have ideas even though they should so it’s good that you give them things to do

There are things you can do besides driving your mother around

Tell her it’s her day off

Have someone call her and tell her day off

You could have a sign somewhere in the house that you can see that says you are on vacation

Anyway thanks for all you do

I live with my mother in her home and am challenged to engage her every day. She always wants to "go to work" so I have to drive around town til she is distracted. Also, when I hire an in home care giver, they need something to do. THey do not seem to come with ideas to engage her. Thanks for all your ideas, I will prepare them for my in home caregivers to do.

Also, I liked the making bird feeders idea with pine cones. She enjoyed that with today's caregiver.

Thank for the free activities!! I'm a homemade aide, and its great to have this resource for clients with Dementia/Alzemiers.
