I haven't had an opportunity to try your suggested activities yet. I am hesitant about military band music as many of our residents are Europeans who lived through WW2 and I don't want to bring up bad memories. I have however followed your suggestion of several short activities in succession and found that worked well. As per Marinas suggestion I also made 2 fiddle mats and a box of different textured material offcuts and toys (eg smallish toy dinosaurs) which have proved very popular. One very elderly lady who is in a lie back chair spent a fair bit of time feeling everything. Thanks for your help. Christine
