Puzzle Time Program
Hi All, I hope everyone is enjoying their summer! I have been very busy traveling, and working on some projects.
I am very happy to share the launching of the PUZZLE TIME program with our partner organization PuzzlesToRemember ! We are currently working with 2 high schools in the NYC area. We are pairing up a high school student with a senior afflicted with Alzheimer's Disease for an hour of puzzle-solving. The high school students will receive community service credits (often a requirement for graduation). The benefits of puzzle-solving have been studied by many researchers.

This program will bring lots of stimulation and happiness for both of the parties. I am looking forward to training the high school students.
I am hoping this program will grow. My dream is for every state to have a PUZZLE TIME program.
Please reach out to me if you would like to have a PUZZLE TIME program in a specific facility or if you are aware of a high school that would be interested.
Our contact information: kidcaregivers@gmail.com
Hope to hear from you soon!
