Twiddle - Sensory sleeve
Caregivers frequently face challenges in identifying suitable engagements for a loved one living with dementia. As Alzheimer's disease advances to its later stages, numerous games tailored for people with dementia lose their effectiveness. A prevailing trend is the restlessness exhibited, especially if the person had previously been familiar with manual tasks like gardening, cleaning, writing, or playing a musical instrument before the onset of Alzheimer's or dementia.
Twiddles are highly effective and safe sensory aids used to reduce stress, provide an engaging and entertaining way to occupy the hands and increase brain function. They are especially useful for those living with mid to late stages of dementia. Soft, safe and washable, Twiddles are designed to keep hands and minds active and engaged, or soothed and calmed. Ideal for home, memory care or respite care homes, as well as alone or in a group setting.
