My Life Story: My Memories of the Past, Present, and Thoughts for the Future - Guided Prompts to Help Tell Your Story (7) (Creative Keepsakes)

Product Information

Our easy-to-complete workbook, designed by Activities to Share, makes a great shared reminiscence activity. As both parents and children ourselves, we recognize how critical it is to ensure our family stories are shared only with those we choose to share them with. Every life is packed with stories worth telling, and no one can tell them better than the person who lived them. Plastic Recycling Type-5 Please be responsible and recycle any unwanted plastic product or packaging. With all of your stories spinning in my head, and your tone of voice in my typing fingers, I’ll get to work on writing your story.

Imagine: Your family, generations from now, gathering around to listen to your loved one’s history… read aloud in their own voice! My lovely storyteller and I have spoken, and he has also sent me the piece that he has already written; a beautiful account of living, working and travelling through Southern Africa with a young family in the 60s. Then move into adolescence with prompts like List five objects you remember from one of your middle school/junior high school classes and describe them. I’ll spend some time talking to you – usually over the course of several interviews spaced over a few days or weeks – getting to know you, and asking you questions about your life. An ideal way for carers, managers, support staff, and volunteers to make a genuine connection with their residents.We have included a page of useful guidance notes to assist staff in providing more relevant activities for the individual. Share among friends and family, and recreate the warmth of listening to them tell their story in a way only they can. We all have our own life experiences which shape us as individuals – but people with dementia often have problems with communication and memory that make it difficult to express who they are and what matters to them. Probably around 150 hours work goes into a 30,000 word book, and that’s even before you factor in design, typesetting services and print.

I highly recommend this to all those adult children looking for a special gift for their older family members.

Many more do it to have the peace of knowing they have left a meaningful memento of their life for the people they love.
