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
