NAME THAT TUNE | Meaningful Memory Care Activity

Sometimes meaningful engagement can begin with something as simple as a hum.
Name That Tune is a ready-to-use dementia care activity designed for real-world care environments—when there isn't time to gather supplies, prepare an activity, or figure out how to begin.

Prep time: 0 minutes.
Supplies: None needed.

Hum a familiar melody and let the interaction unfold from there.
But this isn't simply a suggestion to “play music.”
The guide gives caregivers a clear pathway for turning one familiar tune into meaningful engagement:
Begin. Connect. Keep it going.
