Hi Meryl We had a Carnaval and had it outside We also had carnival like activities during nursing home week We had several carnivals around Easter time We had a balloon artist and the residents really liked that As far as games for the residents I say keep it simple We had children at some of these which the residents really liked too We did do some of these games also https://www.goldencarers.com/carnival-games/7243/
We are planning a Carnival for our Dementia unit. We are hoping to make as many of the resources ourselves. Has anyone had a successful Carnival Day and what was your favourite game that was most liked by residents. Thanks
Ring Toss was our favourite game, i made ours with washed out beer bottle and some rope tied in a ring! I Made all out our games except the hook-a-duck!
I have been so thrilled to get the tips and ideas on dealing with Seniors across the board. Golden Carers has really helped me the past few months. Thank you!
