I really appreciate this website, and this is my second year using it. I’m an Activity Director in mental health, and we support residents of all ages at our facility, so the resources available here can be used in so many different ways. I’m very thankful for this site.

Very excited today, finally had approval to buy a Ipad for my residents to use during one on one session, I have downloaded a few apps that were free for a trial, the residents loved it and the facial expressions of enjoyment were just amazing,
I was wondering if anyone else using them and if so would they like to share apps they use.
Our apps we are trying are as follows:
Lets create pottery (will be purchasing residents interacted well)
Spark Art
Falling stars
Music Sparkle
Matching pairs
Life time talks (purchased - excellent reminiscence app)
Lively Silver
Fish pond
gaze- visual pictures with sound (purchased, resident really enjoyed watching and hearing rain, snow and window plus watching the fire burn- you actually hear the wood crackling)
jigsaw box (purchased - excellent can take a picture of resident then turn into puzzle... residents loved seeing their faces as the finished product)
jigsaw 123 (purchased - worked well with high cognitive impaired residents)
Hi Heather, yes our facility have 4 IPads to start with. One lady uses her's all the time, Skypes etc , loves it. Taking a little longer to convince others to have a go but they are asking questions so that's a good start. You have interesting App's listed, must give them ago. Thank you
