Curiosity Box Ultimate Fidget Gift for Engaging Dementia Care

Review from Residentia Home: 'The curiosity box is amazing for one our residents who continually claps her hands since having the curiosity box shes been so occupied with it.  Thanks you so much for giving our residents a better quality of life'
 
An ideal gift for someone in the later stages of dementia, the Curiosity Box with its convenient carry bag brings the joy of discovery to any setting. Reminiscent of treasure chests or classic button tins, this activity offers a sensory experience that almost whispers, “Open me and take a look inside!”
 
Inside the box, familiar, tactile items await, inviting the person to explore, touch, and engage, just as they might have while sorting through keepsake tins in the past. This gentle, empowering activity respects their natural curiosity and offers satisfying moments of discovery. It’s perfect for those moments when they feel restless or seek a comforting distraction. Placed within view, the Curiosity Box can independently captivate their attention, creating a ‘re-set’ effect that often brings calm and focus, allowing for more time spent together.
