Part Number:VEGETABLES
This 12 piece Vegetable puzzle features an adult-life image with vivid colors and large pieces which are easy to handle. Puzzles are made of a thick, durable chipboard and are 8.25" X 11" when complete. Consider for MindStart middle activity level.

Traditional puzzles, with many, similar looking pieces and detailed images, are too difficult and confusing for patients with dementia.  MindStart puzzle products are unique because the images have only a few, simple objects in each image, making it easier for the user to find pieces that go together.  For instance in the Vegetable puzzle, the orange carrot pieces will clearly go together. This design feature, along with having less puzzle pieces, allow people with dementia to have the right level of cognitive stimulation and success. 

"Large piece puzzles provide cognitive stimulation for people with Alzheimer’s"

Therapist Tip: MindStart jigsaw puzzles provide cognitive stimulation for people with Alzheimer's by using the skills of visual skills, problem solving, matching, and coordination of the fingers.  They also can spark memory  and conversation through the image depicted on the puzzle.  MindStart puzzles are a form of therapy for adults with all forms of dementia and also head injury, stroke, Parkinson's or frail elderly who tire easily. Also, the large size of the puzzle pieces help seniors with vision loss, as they can easily see and handle the pieces.  The Vegetable puzzle can stimulate conversation about gardening, naming kinds of vegetables, and favorite vegetables to eat.

After having such great success with the first 3- 12 piece puzzles, I ordered the next 3 and am just as excited about these as the first one. This is perfect for dementia/Alzheimer's patients. To see the joy on their faces when they have completed these puzzles is just priceless!

These puzzles are so appropriate and helpful for patients with Alzheimers. I bought my first one about 4 years ago - a colorful 63-piece puzzle. I especially liked it because of the large pieces which were easy for my Mom to pick up. A couple years ago we switched to the 24-piece puzzles. This Christmas I purchased my first 12-piece puzzle. It's perfect for Mom. It's challenging, but it's doable. The bold colors and simple images are just what Mom needs now. I can't recommend these products strongly enough!

well chosen subjects, color differences highlight and make assembly easier. Lighter to handle than wooden puzzles

Was great for my grandmother because of color differences & was of subject that interested her. Was great to start with this size so that she could accomplish it all on her own. Only negative is the price.
