Perfecto para ancianos con demencia. A mi abuela le encanta, aun recuerda la parte basica de coger y descartarse pero los juegos de cartas son demasiado complicados para ella.

I wish I’d read the reviews properly, not at all what I call Snap! There are categories of objects to match, but no matching pairs of cards, too confiding for my dementia users. Now I’ve unwrapped the cellophane I can’t send it back! Beautiful cards, big, sturdy & colourful, excellent quality. Just not what I call Snap!

Lovely quality cards big enough for people to handle if they gave poor fine motor skills

I liked how the images were not childish but fun enough for a game my only negative is from a personal point the cards could do with being thicker to make them easier to pick up for an older less functional hand overall though a fantastic product

Good quality, sturdy cards. However, there are no matching pairs, only matching categories (of which there are 4). Could be a difficult concept for those in later stages to fully grasp.

A good product for my partner who has vascular dementia. The animal pictures were very colourful and easy to see. This gave another level of brain activity for someone with dementia, which was to ask him if he could recognise and name the animals…

Ho acquistato queste carte per lavoro, da utilizzare per attività di stimolazione cognitiva con persone affette da demenza. Le immagini di animali, mezzi di trasporto e attrezzature da lavoro sono adatte anche a chi non ha una vista perfetta e sono chiare, mentre quelle del cibo non mi sono ilutili perché non sono ben definite e avrei preferito che venissero rappresentanti cibi singoli e non piatti con più alimenti insieme. Ad ogni modo le uso.

My mother with mid/severe Alzheimer’s enjoys this game. I would recommend it.

The cards are nice but no two are the same so you cannot play standard snap. For someone with even mild dementia, matching categories is far too complex. Just looking for exact pairs can be a challenge but there are no matching pairs at all. Disappointing. Better description of product is required.

I work with dementia patients and am always looking for ways to stimulate their brains. I have found that going through these cards with them – as a game – they happily participate plus it gets those with dementia a great way to think. Very good brain stumulator.
