Joggin' Your Noggin

This second book in the series contains slightly higher-level vocabulary, while using the same popular game format presented in Volume One. All activities are carefully designed to challenge the minds of seniors, particularly those in mild to moderate stages of dementia or Alzheimer's disease. Though some of the games may seem easy to complete, they provide essential calisthenics for the brain to help maintain memory and word-finding skills. Seniors may complete the activity books independently, or along with a family member, friend or caregiver. Activity directors may engage a group of seniors in nursing homes or assisted living facilities. Regardless of the setting, all will enjoy reminiscing, laughing, sensing the pride of success or simply appreciating the moment. A retired speech-language pathologist, the author has over 20 years of experience in the use of strategies and tasks to help adults and children faced with memory, thinking and word-finding deficits.
