How to Make a Sensory Blanket for Alzheimer’s Patients

August 4, by Claudia Porter. 1 Comment

 

If you have a friend or family member with Alzheimer’s or dementia then you are familiar with the daily struggles.  A sensory, or fidget, blanket may sometimes help a patient during their day.  That is where this tutorial from Sezen Your Life comes in handy.

Sarah, the author, takes you through her process of making her sensory blanket.  There are details about what she put on hers and a little bit about the process used to make it.

Her blanket was a family affair, with her children helping her out.  She even added a loop and button so the blanket could be rolled up for storage.

You can tell from reading the article how special this blanket was to make and how it holds many memories.

    Hi Claudia,
    Thank you so much for the kind words! Out of all of the projects I’ve done, this blanket is by far the most meaningful. I hope it is an encouragement to others walking alongside loved ones on this challenging journey.
    Thank you!
    Sarah
