Rummikub

Rummikub is a classic tile-based game that blends strategy and luck, making it a great activity for individuals with dementia.

You will need a Rummikub game set, which typically includes 106 tiles in four colors (red, blue, yellow, and black). Explain to the participant that they need to collect the same color numbers and put the numbers in ascending order or any color but put the numbers in ascending order.

• Cognitive Stimulation: Rummikub involves pattern recognition, number sequencing, offering cognitive stimulation and mental exercise.
• Social Interaction: Playing Rummikub with others encourages social interaction, communication, and companionship, which is especially valuable for individuals with dementia.
• Memory Reinforcement: Repeatedly playing the game can help reinforce memory retention and cognitive skills.
