Gardeners Couple

Roleplay is regularly used with anyone living with dementia and our small wooden doll sets are ideal for patients to handle and move around a raised garden or planter. Why not build a scene with an allotment, make tissue paper lettuce, use paint and pattern makers to resemble ploughed earth!

The dolls have flexible arms and legs and are all-wooden construction. Set includes one male and one female farmer with accessories.

The male farmer comes with a working wheelbarrow and spade. The female farmer comes with a rabbit and two carrots. Please note clothes are not removable.

Why not use with our Rabbit & Chick set code: EST4

‘Some people with dementia can enjoy the sensation of holding something …  and it can inspire a renewed sense of purpose, which can lead to increased activity levels and liveliness.

There is evidence showing that the use of dolls or soft toy animals can be particularly helpful for those who may not be engaging with others, or who are restless, distressed or anxious, improving their well-being and ability to communicate’ Dementia UK.
