Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! If you're looking for a fun and meaningful activity to do with a person who has memory loss, try making chocolate chip cookies together! People with memory loss still have a need to feel useful, so include your loved one in the process such as adding an ingredient or stirring. Pro Tip: While the cookies are baking, discuss the smell and what memories come to mind; one's sense of smell has the ability to evoke memories from long ago.
