Our Family Memory Book is a powerful tool for fostering reminiscence. It was designed to support a number of discussion and hands-on activities.
The Memory Book is really a template, organized by topic in facing-page spreads. The topic sequence matches that seen in the companion Family Memory Video.
A collection of generic photos are provided with each Memory Book. These can be mounted on the page spreads to recreate the version of the Memory Book seen in the video. This is an excellent sorting, matching and crafts activity for you to share with the person in your care.
You can customize the Memory Book by finding new generic photos in magazines and mounting them in the book. This is a powerful topical matching exercise, requiring the viewer to identify a topic and find pictures related to that topic.
You can also personalize the Memory Book by mounting personal photos and memorabilia.

Research has shown that memory books help people connect with caregivers and family, and reflect on their past. This explains why they’re so popular in senior care facilities around the country. Memory Lane has taken this well-established tool for reminiscence one step further by integrating it with video and music in a patent-pending format.
Through the creation and use of memory books caregivers can learn much more about the person in their care, establishing a closer connection that translates into more effective support. |
