Why Choose This Activity
Categorize works well when you want steady, low-pressure thinking with familiar pictures. Sorting animals, food, vehicles, and nature items into groups feels concrete and reassuring on Memory Care and Sharp Mind paths. There is no timer on each picture, so conversation can flow between taps.
Three clear choices per picture, immediate green feedback on correct answers, and gentle correction on misses keep the task structured and forgiving.
How It Plays
A picture appears at the top with three category buttons below. Tap the best fit; correct answers turn green and the next picture appears. After a wrong tap, the right answer is outlined in green and the person taps Next to continue. Categories span animals, food, vehicles, nature, and more.

Facilitator Tips
- Start with 3 or 5 pictures for a short session; use 15 or 20 for a longer round.
- Name the picture aloud before tapping - it supports language and confidence.
- If two categories seem close, pick the best fit; there is no time penalty for thinking.
- After a miss, point to the green outline and briefly say why that category fits.
- Changing the round count after Start restarts the game immediately.
