Good quality & Effective Bought this for my sister who has down syndrome & now the onset of dementia… she has been fidgeting a lot lately and this really has helped keep her occupied and she seems happy with it. Despite the cost, it is well made, has snaps to remove the parts so it can be washed too. To me, it was well worth the price to make my sister happy. 🙂
Very well made and colorful This items is well made and has a number of interesting sensory features that are paired with bright colors. My mother can use the item as a muff to keep her hands warm, too. There is a Velcro flap, a zipper, a tangled tubing ball, a key-shaped rubber features, and a braided strand to fiddle with.
Didn’t do it for us Our 98 year old stepfather was super sharp, until recently. His dementia has hit hard and fast. We had high hopes that this would keep his hands and mind busy. It didn’t work for him at all. Hopefully, it might work for your relatives. it’s well made and seems logical.
