Kayco offers products that mentally stimulate seniors with memory loss. These products are designed to respect the elderly and their stage of life by using colors, design and content fitting their generation. Family members, caregivers and activity directors spend valuable time communicating with adults with dementia. Kayco strives to enhance these interactions with products specifically designed for adults needing simple language and cognitive exercise.

Kayco creates products as a loving tribute to Catherine (Kay) Weich who struggled with dementia for five years. For the last years of her life Kay lived in a facility that provided a variety of therapeutic exercises led by activity directors. These types of activities are often developed for children who are at the same stage of language and cognitive function as seniors with memory loss. Finding meaningful pastimes for the family to share with Kay presented a challenge, as well. 

The goal of Kayco Products Ltd. is to provide activities that will entertain, yet challenge, those with dementia. At the same time we strive to maintain the dignity of each individual by offering quality materials that will generate respect for the individual in their senior stage of life. Activity directors, caregivers, and family members will find these activities easy, as well as rewarding, to use with seniors at all levels.

A portion of the proceeds of FANFARE© are donated each year to the Alzheimer's Association.

If you care for someone who suffers from memory loss or dementia, FANFARE© will help you pass valuable time in a meaningful way.

FANFARE© is a set of full color photographs (4½" x 7") of everyday objects. There are forty-eight pictures that can be grouped into twelve categories. Included in the set are directions for at least ten activities that can be played at a table.
