What’s Mis ing? For Early Stage Memory Loss

What’s Mis ing? requires the caregiver or family member to draw the player’s attention to different items in the image and talk about them. There are six image sets with three cards per set: one card with a full image; a second card with something missing from the image; and a third card showing the missing item. The game is more challenging than MatchMate, but it uses the same images for memory recollection and requires the player to use problem-solving skills to complete the task, which is discovering what’s missing from the images. What’s Mis ing? is played face up also. It’s ideal for helping seniors with early-stage memory loss to strengthen their memory skills, but it may be too difficult for others with more advanced memory loss. Although the game is simple, it sometimes takes players a few moments to decide what matches or is missing in the image, and sometimes they need hints. This is fun way for caregivers and family members to interact with the player in a loving, supportive role.
