Engaging in activities like playing with objects or coloring can provide significant benefits for individuals with cognitive impairment. 1 These activities stimulate various senses and cognitive functions, promoting both mental and emotional well-being. Manipulating objects, especially those with different textures and weights, can enhance tactile stimulation and improve fine motor skills. 2 This sensory engagement can also help ground individuals, reducing feelings of anxiety and restlessness. 3 Similarly, coloring allows for creative expression and can aid in focusing attention. 4 The act of choosing colors and filling in patterns can stimulate visual processing and memory recall, while the repetitive nature of the activity can have a calming effect. 5 These seemingly simple actions can provide valuable cognitive stimulation and emotional support, contributing to an enhanced quality of life.
