Stay Sharp Kits
We are now circulating Stay Sharp Kits, made especially for seniors with memory loss. These kits provide books, puzzles and other activities on a specific theme. These resources create a sense of achievement while improving mental speed and helping short-term memory. Kits are currently available on the topics of gardening and baseball. Ask to see kits at the upstairs service desk, or put a kit on hold through the library's catalog.
