Instead of doing the suggested the activity you can just have the residents paint what they want to music This can be fun and can be done with any kind of music
I love this site. Golden Carers provides a wonderful variety of activities ideas which can be used used throughout the year. I love the fact that you can put your spin on some of these activities as well. Thank you so much Golden Carers.
I am so thankful for Golden Carers!! Many times my staff gets stuck on activities and games to do with our clients here at the adult day care. Now that I have subscribed to Golden Carers, I am able direct the staff to Golden Carers and they are able to conduct activities without so much guidance from me. This is a huge help
I think you would supply residents with a sheet of paper with a 'blank' musical staff on it as in the first half of this picture.
Residents would then draw some notes onto the staff while listening to Mozart so that it looks like a piece of music (bottom of picture).
Then dab different colored paint onto each note and use water to color wash the page and spread some light color around. Hope that helps!
