Joy

Joy is pivotal and can come from so many sources, like a chat over tea or winning that game of bingo. But the deepest is when it’s effortless, spontaneous and shared. The slightest of smiles from someone with dementia or Alzheimer's – uncontrived, sparked and unplanned – can bring immense joy and be infectious.

Staying active

Building a sense of freedom comes with a person being able to partake in activities and challenges for themselves, and being given the room to make their own decisions, choices, and actions.

Independence

Developing daily purpose, no matter how small, builds a sense of value – both in life and to others. Mini-successes like completing a puzzle, creating new memories, self-pride and sense of importance all add to a person’s place in the world.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this the large version for low vision adults
Answer:	No, this is the regular Match the Shapes. The Low Vision Edition can be found here https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LLXZH20 (or search Amazon for B01LLXZH20). Note that the tiles are the same size in both versions, but the Low Vision Edition has larger templates with wider spacing making it easier to place the tiles and easier to see the patterns. Keeping Busy
Question:	what order activities can you do with match the shapes. the activities we did are so easy. what else can be done with them
Answer:	What we love about "Match the Shapes" is that in addition to the activities and games suggested, you can use the tiles with or without templates to come up with other activities that are more or less challenging. Without knowing which activities you have completed, it's hard to know what to suggest. In general, the more tiles you give the person with the least guidance (templates, etc), the more challenging the activity. For example, in the "Activities and Games" instructions we describe how to add extra challenge by using all the tiles and no templates to have the person complete a pattern with all the like shapes in each row and like colors in each column. Most find this quite challenging. You can also make up your own challenges by asking the person, for instance, to put the tiles together in a way that the pattern repeats after every fourth tile, or make a square of 16 tiles so that no shape or color repeats in any row or column (similar to Sudoku but using shapes instead of numbers). If you contact us directly, we can try to offer more suggestions specific to your requirements. Keeping Busy
Question:	Are the tiles washable for multi-resident use
Answer:	Yes, they can be washed with any disinfectant or cleaner that does not damaged painted surfaces. The templates are laminated plastic and can also be cleaned in the same manner. The activity is considered to be infection control compliant by most guidelines. Keeping Busy Inc.
Question:	Is this game large enough for low vision adults
Answer:	Yes

Match the Shapes

The colorful shapes on the black tiles naturally draw people’s attention. They are fun to look at and handle, and provide the basis for a variety of fun and challenging matching activities and games. The 36 tiles come presorted into four bags with a corresponding template in each bag. Start with one bag of pieces and a quarter page template.

Successful? Add another bag and the matching template and carry on with new colors and shapes. Too easy? Move to the next level. Too challenging? Move back a level.

The instructions detail how to find the appropriate level of challenge. Even if the person can’t follow the templates, the pieces are great fun to match, stack and sort. A very popular activity.

Brightly Colored Tiles

People are drawn to the brightly colored tiles, picking them up, and sorting and stacking them. For some people with dementia, this is enough for an engaging activity. For those with more abilities, it makes it easy to introduce the more advanced concepts.

Get Familiar with Shapes and Colors

The introductory templates are used to familiarize the person with the shapes and colors. One side of the template shows color swatches, and the other shows the shapes.

Start with One Template...

Once the person can distinguish between the shapes and colors, use the pieces and template from the first bag to start the puzzle.

Add Another...

Add the pieces and template from the second bag and continue the puzzle. Point out how the colors continue in the same line up and down and the shapes are the same across.

And Finish the Last Two...

Add the third and then the fourth template in the same way to complete the puzzle.

Add Complexity...

For added complexity, any of the templates can be replaced by the black template.

Match the Existing Pattern...

This is more difficult because the person has to match the colors and patterns from the other templates with no hints.

When Done, Put the Pieces Back in Their Bags....

When done, ask the person to sort the templates and pieces back into their bags by matching the picture on the bag label with the pieces and templates. You will be amazed by the look of satisfaction from helping out by putting the puzzle away on their own!
