Arts can serve an important part in everyone’s life. As people age and their ability to independently engage in arts activities diminishes, they depend upon the people around them; their family friends and care professionals to bring these opportunities to them. It is especially valuable to those individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias to engage with others and these arts activities are the perfect communication form to make that connection.
The workbook and DVD provide step-by-step instructions for over 40 music and movement activities, complete with a listing of materials needed and time required. The workbook also includes pre- and post-tests that can be used for staff training.
