Has anyone got a template of participation certificate for residents?
These are such fun games! My residents will love them! I love Golden Carers and I recommend it to others all the time.
Hi Karen
Thank you for your kind words and thank you for recommending the side to others but it is very useful. Thanks again.
We have just completed our games, the residents made the trophies and we have had 4 rounds of it was great fun
This is so good to hear!
It's almost Summer again and I have been looking for games to play for our seniors, and man, I was sooooo happy to have found your website!! Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful and doable activities!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! God bless you all!!
We did a mini Olympics competition the week before Halloween. I had a obstacle course ready, and then we did some running competitions. Other events included egg and spoon race, a free archery display/contest and a fast paced football test of skill, plus a short hula hoop lesson.
Contestants who were taking part in the sporting events were evaluated on their skill, ability etc. Next time I surely hope to include some more events like badminton and athletics as a part of the entire event schedule. Medals and prizes were only awarded to the kids at the very end of the last day. It was a whole five day event spread out over a week. We had tea then the young pupils went off home in order to rest up for tomorrow’s activities.
This is perfect! Exactly what I was looking for! Awesome and fun activities. The kids will have a blast!
Thanks so much for your feedback Christine!

Hi Nori, glad to be of help. Thank you for your positive feedback.
I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the Golden Carers website creator. We had a blast in our Mini-Olympic games for the past 2 weeks. Both our Residents and Staff enjoyed thouroughly the program we prepared. Residents and their immediate families were also involved. Most of the ideas presented in your website were excellent and have given us the opportunity to facilitate the activities which had provided friendly competitions among our Resident and Staff alike. We received lots of praises from our Resident, co-workers and the Management.
Thank you so much for your feedback Villan! I'm so happy to hear the Olympic activities worked so well for you!
