Reminiscence activities for seniors
A familiar scene can start a conversation. Print one of the pages below, set out some crayons or markers, and color it side by side while you talk about what you see.
Here are a few questions to try: Did you ever use a machine like this? Who in your family did? What did you hear on a phonograph? Let the answers lead the conversation.
Each scene is drawn twice: an Easy page with bold lines and a Detailed page. Both are included, so everyone in a group can pick a page. If you run activities for a group, there is a page for activity directors too.
From Remember When: The Sewing Room
The Treadle Machine
Two pages to print: the Easy page, then the Detailed page. Print as many as you like for your family.
From Remember When: The Attic
The Phonograph
Two pages to print: the Easy page, then the Detailed page. Print as many as you like for your family.
