We remember things more easily if we can see, touch, taste,
smell and feel it and have someone tell us its name and a little
about it the brain appears to organise itself by linking.
If we think of cats we also link to words such as tiger, kitty,
paws, stalking etc. So learning the connectivity of things is
a key skill.
We remember well when were emotionally involved
we remember better when we are not stressed, so a welcoming
environment helps the emotional part of the brain transfer information
to the long-term memory.
Combining words and music aids memory its easier
to remember the words of a song if you can hear the tune. This
is why poetry and rhymes are so important.
We offer a full range of memory activities including online interactive
games.
