has anyone out there have any neat ideas for bingo prizes for a nursing home that is very low functioning? I cannot give them candy or popcorn or thing in that nature so I need help....Thanks

toothpaste, deodorant, bath wash(with a pump action) , picture frames, Dove soaps, Fans (hand)
How about; lavender sachets for the ladies and car air fresheners (paper ones) for the men, travel size shampoo and conditioner, tissues and body spray (try Reject shop for $1 bargains), op shops for nick nacks, books, jewellery, scarves.
Hankies, Packets of Tissues, Combs you can buy for $2 a packet. Bars of Soap I wrap them in cellophane and tie a ribbon around, mini photo frames, sensory bags, ask staff if they have any toiletries from hotels they would like to stay in.
Great ideas. Sally, Rosina Cathy, Shari, and Anna I particularily like boxes of Kleenex It seems like the residents never have enough Kleenex and I always need it. Costume jewelry necklaces always seem to be a hit for the ladies I think ties are nice for some of the man and you might be able to get some donated I always did Thanks again everyone for your suggestions
I have been in this field for close to 15 years. I came across your website initially because I was searching for a shared, personal forum with other professionals in my field that was not attached to random advertising and monthly fees. After discovering your website which hosted a forum that was exactly what I was looking for, as well as providing a mountain of resources that didn’t require you to follow several external links to get to, and to top it off no monthly recurring fee...Jackpot!
