Relish 13 Piece Orient Express Dementia Jigsaw Puzzle – Alzheimer’s Products / Puzzles & Dementia Activities for SeniorsActive Minds Jigsaw Puzzles (AKA Relish Jigsaw) Are Made Specifically For Those With Dementia Or Alzheimers
I wandered across these Active Minds Puzzles when looking for fun activities for those who have dementia such as Alzheimers, Lewy Body, or any other mind-altering disease.
Unlike other jigsaw puzzles, the Active Minds brand is catering specifically to those with dementia by having very large pieces and not a lot of them! Some of their puzzles are only 13 pieces or so, allowing for more of a change of success for your elderly loved one. Other Active Minds puzzles have 35 pieces so still pretty easy to complete this type of puzzle.
And, all Active Minds puzzles are made of a tough plastic so they will hold up to many rough hands in a group setting, such as a nursing home or retirement center.
As a bonus, a lot of reviewers mention that, when their senior friends were completing the puzzle, there was a bubbling up of memories that were related. Talk about quality time!
Update: When updating this article in August 2021, I noticed that ‘Active Minds’ seems to have changed their name to ‘Relish.’ The below puzzles are all available at the time of posting.
Active Minds 13 Piece Jigsaw Puzzles
As noted above, with only 13 large pieces to construct these lovely puzzles, almost anyone can complete them – even if a little help is needed from a companion.

I want to replace the 12 piece active mind puzzles my husband enjoys…are they out of business? Where can I get them now? Will they make more or will they be sold? There is no one else making this quality of large 12 peice puzzles. A good business to get into….hope someone will soon!

Hi, Marlene! Thanks for your comment on GoodGiftsForSeniorCitizens.com. I went and looked and this resulted in updating my article. It seems that ‘Active Mind’ might have changed their name to ‘Relish.’ Anyway, there’s a bunch of 13 piece jigsaw puzzles for dementia folks now on the page, along with some larger puzzles. Happy shopping!
