Relish - Dementia Aquapaints Activities - Pack of 5 Reusable Water Painting Toys, Garden Wonders, Alzheimer’s Products & Gifts for Elderly/Seniors

Re-useable. These are quite beneficial particularly when someone with dementia is having a troublesome day. When they can’t complete that day, they can come back to it next day at a fresh. I have used many colour books, number related specifically for this cruel illness and this is by far the best.Why? Why because the drawings have been made relatively easy to complete and not too distracting for someone with this illness to not attempt. You simply dip the brush into water and brush onto the sheets for the colour to start to appear.There are five sheets in total in the pack. When wet the sheet comes to life with gentle colours for someone with dementia. Later when you are onto some other part of the day these sheets dry out and the outline of the drawing remains whilst the rest dissapears - making it reusable for another day to try again and again etc.Anyone that is anyone knows with this illness if you find something that works to bring some joy, however brief to someone locked in with Alzheimer’s then you do like to repeat to allow those emotions to arrive again when painting again.This person I am using these with, was an artist who used brushes enjoyed art classes etc.Highly recommended these and the personal reflection from the inventor within the pack that gives insight on how this pack came about whilst sharing their journey watching a loved one who is ill with disease.

For my mother with moderate dementia. A good quality reusable fun product. I will ve looking at what else the company make as the quality if this was good

Bought these for my mum who has dementia and in the early days this gave her hours of relaxation and enjoyment. Sadly her motor skills have decreased and she can no longer use. This is a great product and something I highly recommend. Enjoyment and simplicity. Love it.

Really liked this set and it was a well priced gift for a relative with dementia. A little disappointing that no paintbrush is included, this made it difficult to do the activity on Christmas morning. That said the pictures were good and the skill level was as advertised - it was enjoyable to ‘paint’ with them.

My mum loves this. It has provided an opportunity for her to sit calmly to paint the pictures. She gets very anxious and this was the first time, in a long time, that we saw her sitting happily for over half an hour to carefully paint the rose picture. She was so happy with the result and felt like she’d really achieved something. It was good to see her calm, relaxed and happy.It’s a shame it doesn’t come with a paintbrush as we didn’t realise this and then had to go and look for brushes. Very pleased with this product.

My clients love this product. It’s easy to set up and is mess free. They like choosing the pictures that they are going to paint. The pictures are beautiful and the activity leads to conversation. Clients who normally have difficulty concentrating are happy to sit and paint the picture to conclusion and even to choose another one.

Positives: Simply to use. Quick delivery, Engaging for Alzheimer patients.Negative : Expensive, picture designs are very simple, doesn't include a paintbrush, doesn't last long, picture starts to disappear too quickly

My mum was an artist but now with advanced dementia, there is little she can do beyond colouring in books. These take her back to using paint brushes again. The colours are interesting and vibrant and magically appear when brushed with water. As soon as they dry out they are ready to use again. Kept my mum busy and happy for hours.
