Here are some more songs for the War Time Quiz
Wartime Songs Quiz

A new activity has been posted by a Golden Carers member: War Song Quiz

Hi Solange,

Have been having fun with the Baby Boomer song quiz and have done up to 70 songs with lyrics. If anyone wishes to get them from me, please feel free to contact me...cheers Jo

Love that we are now acknowledging the baby boomers. We are starting to see younger onset dementia residents coming into various facilities and to have on hand activities that are for their generation is a bonus. We are constantly needing to change our current activities to cater for the baby boomers as has been previously mentioned, most activities cater for the 75 to 90 yr old age bracket. Thanks Solange for giving us food for thought.

Love this idea...and have added some more of my own...it will also be a test to guess who actually sang the songs..once you get started you find plenty and will sing away all day...

24. Like a bridge over troubled waters...
25. Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower's sweet...
26. Paper roses, paper roses....
27. Say goodbye my own true lover....
28. Killing me softly with his song...
29. Are you lonesome tonight...
30. We've only just begun, white lace and promises...
31. Ebony and ivory live together in.....
32. You say you're gonna leave, you know it's a lie...
33. I wish they all could be California.....
34. Maybe I didn't treat you quite as good as I should have.....
35. You ask how much I need you, must I explain....
36. I'll always remember the song they were playing.....
37. You're a rich girl and you've gone too far...
38. I am sailing home again 'cross the sea...
39. Oh they called it puppy love, Oh I guess they'll never know....
40. Such a feeling's coming over me...

Don't forget to include the New Zealand national anthem too, as this is what the NZ in ANZAC stands for.

I write mine up on the whiteboard for all to see and answer

the Uni of Tasmania course is brilliant....I have done it and am thinking of doing further studies.

Cheers Jo

I actually use the original Scattergory cards and make that we have 5 mins to find 3 items for about 6 headings..makes it interesting.
