How to play

  1. Call a category: “five things that are red,” “five ice cream flavors,” “five movie stars.”
  2. Name them together, out loud, helping as needed.
  3. Take turns choosing the next category.

A few tips

  • Reminiscence categories double as memory care: “five places we’ve traveled.”
Reaching for an answer is exercise the brain enjoys. Make it a game.
