Project Cubing
Empowering the Elderly in Singapore with Rubik's Cube: An Initiative to engage elderly to bring joy and improve the quality of their lives.
Our Rubik's Cube Singapore project is the inspiring vision of Jaryl Lee, a student of the Raffles Institution.
Transforming Elderly Care in Singapore Through Puzzles
In Singapore, where elderly community is a growing concern, innovative approaches are essential. Rubik's Cube, a puzzle that has fascinated and challenged minds globally, now serves as a tool for engagement and mental stimulation in our elderly care facilities. The project aims not just to entertain but to provide tangible benefits in slowing the progression of dementia, a condition affecting a significant portion of our aging population.
The Role of Rubik's Cube in cognitive development
The Rubik's Cube, with its complex yet solvable nature, is an excellent resource for mental exercise. Our initiative has tailored strategies to make the cube approachable for seniors, ensuring it aids in maintaining cognitive functions and providing a sense of accomplishment.
Enhancing Manual Dexterity Through Engaging Activities
Manual dexterity, or the skillful use of hands, is crucial for the elderly to maintain independence. The Rubik's Cube, with its requirement for fine motor skills, is a perfect tool for this. Under the guidance of our skilled volunteers, including chess enthusiast Jaryl Lee, participants learn to maneuver the cube, which helps in maintaining hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills.
Join Us in Making a Difference, make a significant impact. We invite volunteers and supporters to join us in this meaningful journey of enriching the lives of our elderly with Rubik's Cube in Singapore. Together, we can create a supportive, engaging, and mentally stimulating environment for our cherished senior citizens.
