Fun Brain Games for Adults Volume Four

This is the fourth workbook in the "Fun Brain Games for Adults" series. This workbook features a variety of activities to provide hours of engagement and brain stimulation for those with dementia and other cognitive disabilities. After watching a Speech Therapist work with her stepmom who has dementia due to Alzheimer's, Kathleen created a set of worksheets she could use to practice the activities completed during therapy sessions. She tapped into her years of experience homeschooling to help her create exercises involving speech, eye-hand coordination, math, and verbal skills. Her stepmom loved the activities! Others saw her workbooks and wanted copies, so here they are. Ideal for those in Stages 4-5 of dementia as well as other special needs adults, the workbook uses large print, simple instructions, a variety of brain exercises, and clean, clear images. Exercises include: Identify the Items Opposites What Comes Next? Categories Rhyme Time Famous Pairs Mazes Word Searches Math Finish the Phrase I Spy Color and Tell Calendar Work and much more! While each exercise can be done independently, many are designed to encourage engagement and conversation between the person and their family or caregivers. Review of Volume One: "Fun Brain Games for Adults is a missing piece that I have needed for years in my Speech-Language Pathology practice. It was so hard to find adult appropriate material that did not look childish and offend some of my patients. I love the variety of activities. I don’t have to carry around armfuls of books now, because I can treat multiple objectives from one source. I can also use the books to obtain responses in multiple ways: reading, writing, singing, story telling, problem solving, recall, etc. An added bonus is that this book is easily accessible and affordable for my families to purchase for their loved ones. I am excited about having this great tool to use in my home health speech therapy visits. . I can’t wait for all the new additions. I have ordered them for my entire Speech Therapy team." Mandi "This is an excellent book for adults with cognitive decline. Assorted activities such as fill in blanks word association, etc. my family member has been enjoying it. I like that it doesn’t mention “dementia” on the cover or anywhere else. Perfect. I hope there will be more volumes coming out. Highly recommend." Abby Note regarding Solutions: There is no Solutions section in the book. Some exercises include a Word Bank which acts as a Solution. Many exercises contain questions that have more than one answer or the answer is up to the individual completing the exercise. For those exercises where a Solution was deemed necessary, possible answers are found at the bottom of the page up side down.
