Do not cut the corks for safety reasons. Let them glue the corks together and decorate them as they like it. Also, they may enjoy sorting games like a deck of card to separate into suits or numbers, and colour sorting, https://www.goldencarers.com/colour-sorting/3274/ , balloons’ games, untying wool sweaters, Beach Ball game (a large beach ball tossed gently by feet to clients sitting in a circle.
