Terrific suggestions - these questions can be utilised for other activities, for example, I plan to ask each participant their nickname - record these on the whiteboard - then hide the answers and use it as a memory game. Great way to engage each participant and then get the brain working to remember them. Also - some may have an interesting story as to how they gained their nickname, which will entertain and help to connect with other participants.
What a blessing to have found the Golden Carers website, our residents love the activities, particularly fond of visual and musical quizzes. Oh, what fun!! Thanks to all to those at Golden Carers and everyone who contributes to making this website an invaluable tool in ones' toolkit.
