Making Memories Together® is an award winning noncompetitive board game
designed for persons with major memory disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease. Families
are instructed on how to create individualized Memory Cards that help tap into pockets of
preserved memories for the memory impaired individual, thereby improving the quality of
visits. The game cannot reverse the progression of Alzheimer's disease, but it does
enhance the quality of life for the affected individual by making visits by family and friends
more comfortable and enjoyable. Families enjoy involving members of all age groups in
the fun and creative intergenerational process of making the Memory Cards. Materials for
creating the Memory Cards are included with the game, along with extensive tips and
techniques for making the game engaging for all involved. The Memory Cards, with their
personal pictures and stories about the person with memory problems, attract volunteers
and enable staff to know the patient as a person. In the end, families find they have created
a rich biography of their loved one in the form of a game—a highly valued treasure they will
always have.
The cost of Making Memories Together is $49.95 which includes shipping and handling (See Order Form).
