Rummage Box for Dementia

Susannah, that is a lovely comfort resource you are creating for your dear Dad.

Maybe add a small snow globe or kaleidoscope for pretty visual effects?
A magnifying glass, a small mirror?
A small purse with loose change to handle?

Sending best wishes to you in your caring role. My sisters and I cared for our lovely Mum for 10 years, dementia is a cruel disease, we just want our loved ones to be safe and content.

I d find some pre decimal coins especially like a threepenny bit and maybe a joey may bring back some memories, do you have any old fashioned sweet shop lots of towns have them now ....perhaps a few twiddle things like a kitted square with a button or two or a knitted flower etc on , a couple of dice he may not understand the numbers but may like seeing the numbers and feeling the different sides to them what about jacks he may have played with them as a child ( try a charity shop when there open )
