Hi Jemma,

Have you thought about making a book on word searches various appropriate puzzles and colouring pages to keep them busy while you are away

What about making activity boxes for the careers short easy interactions they mean engage with residents when they get some time. Short word games , make up add of clips and fav ties that open up conversations , letter association, sing along, mosaic to move to, matching socks, matching pairs , hand cream for a hand massage just a thought. Good luck

I absolutely love this website and get most of my daily activities from it. It has so much to offer for different stages of dementia. I love the artwork, games, and quizzes which we use every day. People are constantly asking where do I get my ideas. Thank you so much!
