At some stages of dementia it may be hard to name or describe various objects

Try: Print out clip art pictures of commonly used household objects and paste them in a grid on blank pages of paper include pictures of items commonly found in each room of a house including furnishings clothes tools bathroom fixtures etc organize the pictures by subject household area in which they are found or in another order that makes sense to the users laminate the pages or put them in page protectors to keep them clean keep the pages in a 3-ring binder when the Care recipient (cr) has trouble remembering words give the cr the binder to use to find and point out a specific object

Materials: Paper computer clip art lamination or page protector if desired 3-ring binder
