My Mom is 92 with dementia. She is still talkative and loves to hear me chat but I sometimes run out of things to talk about. Watching tv used to be her favorite past time but she can’t see anymore. I play her favorite music, but what else can I do to entertain her? She can’t see so she can’t do puzzles, knit, or read. I feel so sad for her. Any suggestions are welcomed.

Even the postage is free when you send the "books" back.

Also, maybe she would like to paint? You could start off with watercolors and she could feel around her paper without marking it with her hands (unlike acrylic), of course, she might enjoy finger painting. There are several blind painters out there, and their work is incredible. It doesn’t matter if hers will be, but she can paint from her mind and memory. It’ll probably turn quite abstract, but she might enjoy it.
Finger painting is a great idea.
