Hello All,

I have several people who are HARD OF HEARING.
I'm looking for activities - GROUP ACTIVITIES, to include them.
We play bingo, cards and hangman. It difficult because their hearing is poor.

ALL SUGGESTIONS WELCOME.

If their site is good then you can always use large cards for them to see such as suggested on this activity
