RelishTactile Turn Dementia Sensory Activity, Fidget Toy for Alzheimer's & Dementia, Mid to Late Stages, Soft Comfort Product with Contrasting Colors & Textures

My husband has alzheimer/ dementia, this ‘toy’ provides a touchable, easy moving hand stimulating activity! The blue/yellow colouring provides a peaceful contrast as the toy is turned. It has textured materials that provide interest and stimulation for a person who is usually very switched off from most things. I would highly recommend this toy for older children and adults with a learning difficulty, autism or dementia etc. it’s brilliant! Thankyou😊

arrived ahead of time and in good condition. Would recommend.

So the description states this is a:-Relish ~ Tactile turn sensory activity, fidget toy. Soft comfort product with contrasting colours & textures.My father has been diagnosed with dementia and alzheimer’s, but at the moment he is not too far gone and he threw it at me lol.But so far our autistic little one loves it, he thinks it's like a soft rubix cube.A never-ending fidget motion, with soft textures and is gently weighted like a pillow.* Therapeutic fidgeting motion* Focus to distracted restless hands* Keeps the hands busy* Occupies the brain* Soothe when feeling stressed or anxious* Multiple textures* Ribbed and velvet* Bright contrasting colours to stimulate tactile senses* Gently weighted like a pillow to provide a comforting experience*** "Satisfying:-* The Tactile Turn’s therapeutic fidgeting motion keeps hands busy and the mind focused."*** Cleaning:-* Hand Wash is recommended but can be machine washed on a delicate cycle at 30°.So far I've just given it a febreze or a antibacterial fabric spray.I think it's going to be used a lot more than what it has so far, I have even found myself watching TV and not realising I'm turning it.The price at the time of this review is £19.99, which is a little high but I think it looks like it's built to last.So far so goodBut I will update this review if needed.*** Detail's:-* Material:- Polyester* Brand:- Relish* Age range:- ALL AGES* Size:- 21cm x 12 cm* Weight:- 110g* Features 4 sides:-* Yellow ribbed* 2 navy velvet* 1 blue ribbed

I wanted to give this toy 5 stars, as it really did keep my Mom entertained and stimulated. However, even though it was washed on a 30 degree gentle cycle the fabric started to split along the centre seams of the twisting part after the second wash. I managed to reinforce this seam using my sewing machine, but after a couple more washes it developed holes in other areas. I’ve had two of these toys now and both of them did the same. If they’d have been made out of stronger fabric I’m sure they’d have lasted much longer.

The 5 year old was the only person who played with it!

Got this for my dad who has dementia and he loves it. It is well made, nice soft material and a brilliant design idea for occupying hands that like to fiddle with things.

Lovely textures. Very pleased and hope she enjoys it 🤞

Although it’s aimed at older people with dementia, I think there are lots of people of all ages who would enjoy this ‘toy’.There are two textures: a smooth velvet and a soft ribbed material. Both are incredibly soft.The material feels good quality and it seems well made. It feels really lovely to hold and touch.You can’t actually do much with it - you just keep turning it (a bit like turning it inside out on repeat) But the repetitive motion, and the fact that you can just keep doing that over and over…it’s a really comforting, calming, soothing sensory experience. I keep noticing that I’m picking it up without really intending too, to hold it, stroke it and have a little play.I do think £19.99 is quite expensive for what it is. That said, it’s hard to put a price on feeling comforted, calm and soothed! So, if it continues to have that impact, perhaps 20 quid is a small price to pay and well worth it!
