Well all I can say is thank you so much for all your input, it really does make things easier during these somewhat "difficult times".
One game I would like to share with you is Balloon Badminton all your need is a balloon and two rackets, I have a resident who is 97 and she loves this and gets very competitive. It is brilliant for hand eye coordination and gets the heart going.
We have had a lot of fun with this, as I hope you all will.
Also a great favourite is floor dominoes - does anyone know where I can get some big floor games from i.e. snakes and ladders etc
Thank you for the resources provided on Golden Carers. I found them immensely valuable, relevant and worthwhile. Educational and updated information provided. Great activity ideas and suggestions. The activities presented are appropriate and can be adapted to different client groups in any English speaking country. It is easy to read and understand the instructions and explanations.
