Thank you for this advice you gave Deb as I was actually looking for help with this same situation.

Aussie Bingo

Can you use your work copier to enlarge. Just place the A4 across the scanner then press A4 - A3 then press 100%. That should enlarge the whole page, print and all.

Easter Carrots Craft

We made these for Easter and the residents thought they were really nice and , once managing how to roll the Carrot into a narrowed cylinder, had a great time.

How to make an Aussie Billy Can

I am going to see if I and our residents can make a paper version using tins to wrap the paper around and seal underneath so they can then decorate how they like with Australian flowers/animals , etc. A lot of my residents enjoy cutting out, colouring, etc. so they may actually give this a go.

A local zoo as a lot of people like animals or can you find some one who can bring in pets. We had staff ride their horses in and the men loved this. Is there a mens shed nearby?

What about a sensory bag which holds a feather, baby clothes, soap, etc for a lady and for a gentleman then a toy train/car, big bolts, etc or an apron/blanket that has items sewn on such as a zipper, pom pom, etc?
Try and find out what their interests are and include those items that may encourage trips down memory lane. Hope that helps.

Maybe Marshmallow or non bake cheesecake.

"What am I". You have some one write on a card an Actors name such as John Wayne/food item, etc. Then you place it on your head without looking and you have to guess what the word(s) are with the residents answers to your questions with a YES or NO. It was so funny when I had Apple pie written .
