I bought this book for an elder’s group with mild cognitive impairment. Now I’m wondering if I should get one for my mother and one for myself.

Disappointed with this. Not what I expected and ex pensive considering the what was inside. I dont recommend it. Try the library instead.

Not enough of what I was hoping for. Lots of stuff that doesn’t really apply.

I thought from the title of the book it contained puzzles, mind games, mazes, etc. The book gives you suggestions of activities to do that would help your memory (taking a walk, do a puzzle, plant a plant, etc.). This book did not stimulate my brain, had to send it back.

I bought this based on the descriptions in AARP magazine and the product description. It is so ridiculously basic, not informative nor innovative. My mom’s caretakers already do everything in the book and could probably have written it.
