Hi there I already have my qualification in Cert IV in Leisure and Lifestyle in 2009 and now I'm thinking of doing the Diploma in Leisure and Health. Can someone please tell me what this higher qualification offers in the way of employment? Is it worth doing or would the Degree in Diversional Therapy be better?

Nine Letter Word Puzzles

I'm about to start a new job as an activity coordinator and one of my ladies loves the nine letter word puzzles in the newspaper so I thought I'd make her some.

I saved various coloured milk bottle tops until I had enough to use for this activity. Its great for visually impaired and dementia clients. The clients gain a sense of self esteem and satisfaction plus it helps with fine motor skills.

Whiteboard Word Quiz

We choose a letter of the alphabet and use that letter to try and get as many words as we can. We use different amounts of numbers each time eg 4 letter words starting B another time it might be 5 letter words starting with C.
