Do you have residents who love playing dominoes, but the original monochrome version just doesn’t stimulate them enough? Here’s DOMI Next, a colourful and visually fruity variant that mixes images and numbers to the delight of all your seniors, from the most to the least autonomous!
Your residents suffering from cognitive degeneration, such as Alzheimer’s disease, will appreciate the simpler versions of the game, which involve identifying numbers, colours or objects on the tiles. These no-check versions will have a major impact on their self-confidence, self-expression and general mood. As you watch them interact with the game, you can suggest simpler or more complex variants, depending on their understanding. For your independent residents, introduce them to the classic version of dominoes, where the aim is to create a chain of double tiles whose ends touching other tiles represent, in image or number, the same total. Each resident can start the game with tiles assigned to them, or rather with a pool of face-down tiles in the centre, from which they’ll take turns drawing.
The advantage of DOMI Next is that in each image, the interpretation of the hidden number can be different from one resident to another. One may decide to count the number of oranges, while another may count the flowers on the branch, and the leaves on the fruit.
The game offers many benefits for your residents, as it strongly encourages decision-making, observation, hand-eye coordination and communication. What’s more, the quality of the wood means that residents can handle the pieces and drop them without any danger.
Adopt DOMI Next and see moments between residents or families transformed, by the magic of colours and numbers, into fun and enriching experiences for all!
