Designed originally as an educational tool for children, Jingo Games are a lot like Bingo, except that you have to figure out the answer before you can place a chip on the correct square. Or for those in the later stages of the disease, you can simply show patients the picture cards and have the match the image on their card.

So many activity therapists regard Bingo as a mundane, stereotypical nursing home game. Yet here’s a slight twist to the game that adds challenge, interest and fun with flexibility to include people, regardless of the stage of the disease that they are in.

Examples of questions or clues:

• Warsaw is the capital of this nation.
• Worms, corn, minnows or lures are used as bait in this recreational activity.
• This person cooks many different foods for customers to eat at his or her restaurant.
• It’s our nation’s capital.

Product Features:

• For 2 to 30 players
• Most of the games offer three clues per question
• Each game contains 30 cards and 50 questions

What we like best about this product: Jingo Games offer fun and challenge, regardless of the stage of the disease. You can watch, play, shout out the answers or simply match pictures – a sensitive and intelligent response to the needs of Alzheimer’s patients.

Useful for people in the early, middle or late stages of the disease.
