Caring for Something Provides a Sense of Security and Comfort
Elderly people with dementia often lose their sense of time and daily structure. Giving them something to care for restores a sense of self-worth and security. The interaction with the bear awakens emotions, bringing out paternal or maternal instincts. Combined with enjoyable music, this helps activate people and increases their level of awareness.
The Bear Works Like an MP3 Player
The teddy bear has a Velcro opening on its back, where a built-in MP3 player is hidden. The bear operates on a rechargeable battery. Simply connect the bear to a computer using a USB cable. The bear can be filled with audiobooks, fun songs, soothing rhythms, or even Bible stories. With 4GB of internal memory, there is enough space for more than 1,000 tracks. Arthur plays songs and files in a random order. Each time you activate the bear by squeezing its paw, it starts playing a random song.
