Caregivers

You don't need training to do this well. A few minutes, two flipped cards, and a shared laugh is the whole method.

Caregiver's Guide (PDF)

The printed guide: what's inside, how to prepare the deck, the full rules and tips for playing with someone experiencing memory changes.

Start with fewer cards face-down at once (6–12) and add more over time.
Sit side by side rather than across the table — it reads as company, not a test.
Say the name or object out loud when a card is flipped; it helps recall and keeps the room warm.
There's no wrong way to play — connection matters more than winning.
Play cooperatively when competition feels heavy: one shared pile, one shared win.

Frustration rarely announces itself. Watch for these and stop while the round is still a good memory:

A short, happy round beats a long one. Put the cards away with a smile and play again tomorrow.

My father was always sharp. Isn't this too simple for him?

Difficulty is adjustable between decks — Classic Pairs challenges even the sharpest players.

My mother has some memory changes. Is this appropriate for her?

Yes — large, high-contrast cards, focus on connection not diagnosis; we recommend checking with her caregiver if needed.

I'm not a professional caregiver, can I still use it with my parent?

Yes — the app guides you through it, and it's playable in minutes.
