Great for color blind people with dementia
By Tootsie O'Toole on Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2023
I am a caregiver and have found this Shape Sorting Puzzle perfect for the elderly with or without dementia. There are 3 separate puzzle boards, so the player won't get board because you can mix up the 3 puzzle boards, turn them around, and make various setups which makes the puzzle more challenging each time you play it. Initially my patient took 20 minutes to complete the puzzle, but after a few weeks of playing it, he's down to 5 minutes and loves his accomplishment. I chose this version because he is color blind. Putting the puzzle together does not require the use of color. I highly recommend this version for young and old. It's fun, multi-level when you mix up the boards, provides fun and a sense of accomplishment! <3

You Must Watch The Person Use This
By Sundown AL on Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2023
I gave this to my elderly dad, who has Alzheimer's, hoping that it would help keep him occupied. He didn't pay too much attention to the puzzle, so we just left one strip of puzzle with the loose pieces on his tray in front of him. We gave him some cake to eat, and didn't think too much about the puzzle. I turned away, and when I looked back, he had finish his cake, and had one of the puzzle pieces right in front of his mouth. I could not grab it in time, before he put the piece into his mouth. He wouldn't open his mouth because he was confused, but luckily, I was able to forcefully open his mouth and remove the puzzle piece by putting my fingers into his mouth to pull it out. It did not seem that he would voluntarily open his mouth and spit it out. So if you purchase this for someone with mid-late stage Alzheimer's, you just have to watch over that person all the time and cannot take your eyes off the person while the puzzle is in front of them. Because of this episode, I am not using this puzzle for my dad anymore. I'm currently looking for another puzzle with much larger pieces.
