Thank you.
Yes at times Activity Co-ordinating can be challenging but it is the challenge that gets you motivated for the next day. Our job is made much easier with Golden Carers and all their amazing information. Thank you for that.
I luv to see the smiles on the residents faces when we do all sorts of funny, motivating and great activities with them.

Thank you!
Love these

We love these!
Thank you!

Thank you for sharing your Christmas Jeopardy questions. Our Lifestyle Centre clients will enjoy a Christmas edition of this fun quiz game.

I am looking to try and do this with my Residents', but trying to come up with ideas for alternative items to decorate the balloons with for a Christmas project. Ideas welcomed :)

The residents love these word games, thank you being an endless source of enjoyment, knowledge and creativity.

Hello, did you use 4 cups of grated soap per person?

This year has been just wonderful for the residents of the home in which I work. They have been delighted with the short stories and jokes, the games and the all the words that make up a quiz. I would like to thank all of those who helped to make it such a good year for so many deserving people, to see them laugh and smile is all I seek each time we meet.

I love this activity! I haven't done it with my residents yet, I scrolled through it. It looks like the answer in at the bottom of the slide though. I was thinking it would be an activity where the residents have to guess what it means. But the answer is right there for them. Am I missing how this is supposed to be played?

Thank you!

We loved your idea and had a Gratitude day in our Day Centre at The Salvation Army

What type of paint do you use and how do you make it drip-able please?

Can't wait to try this with my residents. Thank you for sharing.

This is wonderful!! I’ve looked up Jeopardy questions for Christmas before online and they were just too difficult for my group! I know this game will be fun for them!!!

We have done this game with our residents, they absolutely loved it. Most of our residents guessed items in lower amount so we keep saying higher, higher and when we revealed the actual price they were surprised. They wanted to play this game again, same with charade and musical ball. So much fun and everybody enjoyed it. Thank you Golden Career for giving us new ideas. Love your website. Its a great help for us.

All your quizzes are excellent and lead to so many conversations about a variety of topics. The Residents where I Volunteer always ask for them. Keep up the good work..

Golden Carers is absolutely fantastic - thank you so much - we work with Blind and visually impaired groups in the UK and many of your activities can be adapted for this client group.
Have a great Christmas!

Thank you for this. thank you for including Black history month is activities for senior.
Black history month is not just about the struggle for equity. It is. But it is more than this. It is about the wonderful achievements and creativity that those who are identified as Black have achieved and contributed to the countries and communities where they live.

It would have been good to see these included in the word search. Mention the scientists, musicians, inventors, designers, athletes, business persons, public speakers, champions of human rights - poets, playwrights and more - mention the black civilisations in Africa, as well as the words you have used such as oppression etc - because Black history month celebrates our wholeness.

What a Great Idea! Thank you **

This site is wonderful

Awsome!

Has anyone tried the Learn a New Language and is it adaptable to learning Arabic or helping someone speaking Arabic to learn English??

Ok I’m brand new, like just signed up. I’m trying to figure out this scavenger hunt works. Do you print out like 30 sheets of each item they are suppose to find, then they bring you back the worksheet for each item? Or do you tape a picture of one of the items say by the water fountain. Then they come and tell you they found the picture by the water fountain? Hope that makes sense,

We made our tree today doing happy hour, and the residents really enjoyed it. It made for great conversations with some very positive moments of joy! Thanks so much for sharing.

I love this idea!!

How does it work for groups?

I love this!

looking for Christian humor short stories and jokes

Hi Amanda, I am also looking for KPI's and am designing my own Activities Program from scratch. Did you end up finding anything? I'm at the point now of needed to design my own reporting and evaluation for my program. It rolls out in 2024.

We had a great time with Halloween Bingo this week! The group was very taken with the cute pictures. Thanks for creating these resources, Sara.

I am new to activities and this game looks awesome. Can't wait to try it.

Thank you,

We have started doing pictionary. Each table of residents is a team, they take turns drawing a piece of paper out of a bowl *no looking*, I draw it and the teams take turns guessing it. They love it, we play it once a month now.

Great Idea

My memory care residents love this game - especially throwing the big dice!

Hello there.. This is absolutely brilliant site. I love it. Thank you so much. God bless.

This looks fun, I'm going to give it a try!

Well done to your team and keep up the good work.

Hi,

Do you have any ideas for people who are non verbal?


Thanks
