As you probably know, you need to know about your target audience to make the reminiscing activity most appropriate

Hi, Amanda, it depends on what subject you choose for reminiscing. For instance, if you choose 'Weddings', prior to the session you could borrow items related to weddings: dresses, costs, veils, bridesmaids, flowers, photo albums, etc. You may also introduce participants to the wedding traditions of other cultures such as Indian and Greek weddings. You will find other themes for reminiscing sessions in this link:

It depends what you are wanting to do. There are a lot of books, discussion questions, etc that you can purchase for a specific type of reminiscence group, but you could also develop content on your own for free.
