Hi Julie, Can you put your residents around a table and put objects on it for eg. Large dominoes, Large pack of cards, magazines, assorted toys (animals etc), wooden puzzles Anything of interest that is safe. When I do this curiosity gets them, and it often starts them talking or interacting with the other residents. They enjoy picking things up and examining them. Its worth a try.
