have plan an activity around the inventions that are Australian as part of Australian Day theme. Going to do a timeline and discuss and reminisce about them.
You forgot a few, wine casks, motor mowers, to name a couple - this is a good starting point, I will use this but I may leave out things they won't know. Good idea though
thanks for this activity. I used this today with our pre australia day activity at our day centre. most were amazed that we aussies invented these wonderful things. Are'nt we clever!!! It opened up a good discussion theme for our Australia day. Thanks for the information
Christine I did this activity with our residents today, we did a combine session with our hostel residents and high care residents and it was great, it lasted an hour and they enjoyed it so much they have asked to have it programmed to do each week. It was a great session that opened up so much conversation and socialising with all units. Thank you so much for sharing a great activity.
This site is amazing! I'm not sure how I survived before I was introduced to this! Something for every occasion! So many ways for the clients to reminisce and learn about new things. Well worth the membership fee. Thank you!
