Now that BE is back to normal, I've got a fairly unusual request.
In France you can get books with exercises to help the elderly (and Seniors in general) stimulate their memory. I'm looking for a similar thing in English, a sort of Trivial Pursuit in book form, also with visual memory tests, to help stimulate my elderly neighbour's memory. I've found several sites where you can "work" your memory on-line, but my neighbour hasn't got a computer. Does anyone know of any paperbacks/magazines with such exercises? (Sudoku, crosswords and Code Words are out!).
TIA

I have just the book you need. It's brilliant, having read it several times. Trouble is, I can't remember where it is........

Seriously though, HERE's one you may wish to check out. At least the reviews sound promising.

Now, what's my password to log out from here.....

Amazon.co.uk has all sorts of stuff in the Speech Therapy field "orthophonie". But from experience simple things like matching pairs card games help work the pathways in a positive manner if the cards can be of a topic can be something that helps conversation it makes the exercises more enjoyable.

thanks for your ideas, guys!
I found a lot of on-line games and exercises but my voisine hasn't got a computer...
