Description

Art activities are a very effective method of improving the quality of daily life for people living with dementia. Art is lively, expressive and non-verbal activity which encourages creativity and helps trigger memories.

With just a brush and some paint or some crayons or colours pens all users, as individuals or as part of a group activity, can enjoy the satisfaction of creating these beautiful images, without assistance, again and again. Finished pieces can be laminated and used as place mats, framed and hung on walls, put together as part of a collage wall mural. Each book has a selection of 40 clear, simple outline drawings, which can be easily torn out and worked with paint, crayon or felt tip.

The images have been rigorously tested in Care Homes and selected for their appropriate levels of complexity and content.

Easily photocopied for group sessions. Paint Project is an effective and reusable tool for anyone wanting to provide engaging and meaningful activities for people living with dementia.
