- Recommended for mid stage, later mid stage and late stage dementia.
- One cover has delightful roses and the other a splendid vintage camera. Each is printed with the spine to the left, so there's no wrong way to open it.
- It comes with 28 images over 56 pages, which are printed on quality paper, enough to keep any avid colouring fan engaged for some time.
- We've chosen one image per page to help with concentration. This also avoids problems with colour bleeding through if felt tip pens are used, as many elderly people benefit from using them if their grip is weak.
- Half of the images are in the same orientation as one cover and half are in the same orientation as the other one, so when you get to the middle you just flip the book to carry on.
- All of the images have been specially designed to evoke familiarity and encourage conversation and engagement.
- Designed and printed in the UK.
- Pencils NOT included.
Simple hints and tips for using a Timeless Presents product:
Do - commit to participating in this activity, the aim is to spend time engaging with each other.
Do - communicate on an adult level while offering praise and encouragement.
Avoid - questions that start ‘Do you remember’. Try ‘Do you like...’ instead.
If possible - let them lead, there’s no ‘wrong way’ to explore, so avoid directions and criticism.
Do - have fun!
Personal story!
When trying out colouring books with my Dad, we were pleasantly surprised at how enthusiastically he took to it, intuitively knowing what to do. It became one of his favourite activities. Even when in his advanced stage he found it absorbing and it seemed to lift his mood.
Reviews
The pictures offer a range of designs to appeal to a wide audience. There are simple designs as well as more complex pictures to complete. It’s a lovely colouring book.
The premise behind this colouring book intrigued me a bit. I can understand the type of pictures included and anything that encourages someone suffering from dementia or other forms of illness that rob a person of their memory is a great idea. My late granny had dementia and one of my daughters very few memories of her are sitting together colouring in. I think that more types of these products are becoming available and if it helps with speech, coordination and memory there should be more delveloped. It's a beautiful product, great quality paper and designs so even if you just want a luxury colouring book i would recommend it for that.
