The Picture Book of Teacups: A Gift Book for Alzheimer's Patients and Seniors with Dementia

Do you sometimes find it difficult to engage your loved one with dementia? To help them stay calm in the midst of an emotional reaction? To find activities you can share with them that encourage peaceful interaction?

This book can help.

Thumbing through this beautiful picture book with your loved one is an activity that will capture their attention, engage their mind, and encourage them to relax.These teacups bring to mind mornings and afternoons of quiet relaxation, and may encourage memories of time spent with family and friends.

This small, lightweight "coffee table" book is filled with beautiful photos of china and porcelain teacups from various manufacturers, including Royal Albert, Noritake, Herend, Wedgwood, Royal Crown Derby, and Haviland, as well as luxury brands such as Hermes and Versace. Click on the "Look Inside the Book" feature to your left to see a sample of the lovely photos included in this book.

At Sunny Street Books, we design books specifically for seniors with dementia. They're high-quality, adult in nature, with nothing to distract your loved one from their enjoyment of the images themselves.

You'll find a lot of other picture books out there, mostly for kids. But it's demeaning for seniors to give them books meant for children. Adult photography books are usually large and heavy, and they often include long, frustrating paragraphs of text. The only text in this book is the name of the maker of each teacup, along with the pattern name and the series, if applicable.

Families, caregivers, and assisted living staff can share this book with the people they care for. It is also an excellent activity for seniors with Parkinson's disease or recovering from a stroke. Seniors with eyesight or strength challenges who find it difficult to hold a heavy book or read long paragraphs of text will also enjoy this book.
