include the following:
Making lap quilts.
Painting.
Talking books.
Scrap books.
Walking!
Flower arranging.
Tutoring, or visiting with children.
Baking.
Happy hour with non-alcoholic drinks.
Ice cream party.
Brushing & fixing a resident’s hair.
Manicures.
Ladies luncheons.

Although these activities are written
for residents of a retirement community or a nursing
home, they certainly could be utilized for private use
as well. Keeping the mind and body active are important
for everyone, but especially your loved one with
dementia. Do something that is enjoyable for both of
you, and it makes it that much easier.
