​It can be very rewarding to do pleasant activities with the person that you care for. However, it might be difficult at first to think of pleasant activities that are suitable for both of you.

In this exercise we will make a list of the pleasant activities that you can do with the person you care for. First, take a look at Nasser’s experience from the previous exercise.

Nasser
Nasser takes care of his brother who is living with dementia. In addition to taking a nap while his sister takes care of his brother, Nasser takes his brother out for walks around the neighbourhood. His brother enjoys the walks and Nasser is also able to get some exercise and fresh air.
