Are you tired
from the endless google searches for stimulating dementia activities?
Are you unsure of your person’s capabilities
and fearful to see them unable to do things like they used to?
Does creating art sound impossible
and out of reach for you?
Does your person with dementia have no previous relationship with art,
so how could they now?
Caregiving is hard enough.
Coming up with activities doesn’t have to be.
