Reminiscence Therapy - Summer Collection DVD & Photo/Activity Cards Kit

Favorite Things is a series of DVDs created for the enjoyment of those with dementia, their caregivers and family in order to provide comfort and inspire connections and conversation through reminiscence.

Through reminiscence we find comfort in our favorite things and form connections with people and the past.  The Summer Collection is an eye pleaser with the beauty and vivid colors of spending the day at the beach, classic cars, boats or fishing.   Soothing and happy background music provides comfort and brings joy to your environment.
