I totally agree. I have even bought an amplifier for my iPad does not play loud enough for my hard of hearing residents. I all got a microphone. I love my iPad so much
You know what I would do with this game. I would add music to it. So when they get their envelope wit their chocolate inside I would add a name of an Irish song to it...then play that song,have a wee sing a long, and a jig...and if you want add your musical instruments to it too....as we would say here in Northern Ireland"the craic will be mighty". Craic. Meaning fun
I love it. Vi had a residents family member complain at our annual inspection that the craft was "demeaning to the residents". Hope these will not go down as too childish.. As we all know it is sometimes very hard to get some elderly folk in residential Homes ,with several types of difficulties to actually do craft. I have done this job for 14 years now...this is my first complaint!!!
Golden Carers is just wonderful. An amazing resource shared all over the world. I use Golden carers on a daily basis and added with Pinterest, it just makes my job that little bit easier on those days when inspiration doesn't come easy. I love that there is always something new every time I look.
