We are going to watch a beautifully narrated DVD on Lighthouses and we will color panels that have lighthouses outlined on them.
I am also going to purchase lighthouse cookies to enjoy.
The panels will be hung for all to see!

I also use Chicken Soup for the Soul books. They have so many stories to choose from and you can get them to complement the different seasons. My residents love them!

Hi Kymberly, I schedule 1:1's every day for those unable or unwilling to participate in group activities. One of my favorite things to do is a reminiscing board. I ask family members for pictures and ideas of what they liked...if no family is available, I go through picture books with them to get an idea of what they like and go from there. When people visit their room they can start a nice conversation just by looking at the board...it tells a story about the person. As far as a form, there are some very helpful forms on activityconnection.com
Good Luck and keep up the great work!

You can also use regular white Elmer's glue watered down a bit to make it easier to spread. Just be sure it's the clear drying glue.
