Empowering Mature Minds To Soar
As a natural part of aging, changes in our brain can affect our thinking skills. We may not be able to remember words and names as well, find it harder to pay attention and challenging to reason and perform complex tasks.
Despite the changes that come with age, research shows that keeping our minds active can preserve our brain health and abilities to think.
CogniBlocks For Seniors is a programme for senior citizens built around exercising the skills required to help maintain a higher level of cognitive health.
Participants use plastic building blocks to solve various challenges and tasks by memorising, copying, building, stacking, manipulating and creating various shapes, patterns and objects as well as playing games and interacting and socialising.
Did You Know?
We are born with approx 1 billion neurons but we lose them with aging. We can however, retain and strengthen them through mental exercise and stimulation.
Both physical and mental activity are both very important when it comes to staving off dementia and Alzheimer’s disease as well as age related cognitive decline.

The Benefits of CogniBlocks For Seniors
Cognitive Stimulation and Memory Retrieval
Fine
Motor
Skills
Emotional well-being and social interaction
Depth perception and hand-eye coordination
How It Works
Participants are tasked with building objects from 2D models from various perspectives such as top down / isometric or front views.
More advanced tasks require examining physical 3D models and recreating those from memory.
Participants are challenged to use their creativity to solve problems such as crossing make shift bridges or rivers, or building different structures.
Short-term memory is continuously tested through a variety of games which are designed with simple calculations and maths problems which is a vital component to maintain cognitive health.
Activities involve socialising and verbal interaction with others.
