The unique game design enables a wide range of people to meaningfully engage and connect. Thoughtfully crafted so that children, paid caregivers, program leaders, and even loved ones outside the home can all get involved. Anyone with a 3rd-grade reading level can just pick a card and start high-impact engagement with your loved one.
The game comes with everything you need for hours, days, weeks, and months of entertainment. Much better than watching TV! Each card helps you guide your StoryTeller through cherished memories they may have long forgotten. Instead of focusing on big, macro questions, the expertly-written cards support unearthing meaningful details and reliving positive memories. Moreover, the included StoryBook seamlessly incorporates powerful visual associations for even more engagement. As Dave, age 86, shared: “I was amazed at what I could remember.” His wife, Susan, echoed, “I learned things I never knew about my husband of 60+ years!”
For all those who have ever struggled to fully interact with someone they love, StorySparks is for you. Grandchildren can go through an enlightening handful of cards to get more out of visits, and paid caregivers can enrich their client's experience while the primary caregiver is away. You can even use StorySparks over the phone and recruit those outside the home who want to help but often aren’t sure how.
