My favourite game to play with a brainy bunch is a take of the 5 Second Rule they play on Ellen. You get categories and tell them they have to tell you 3 items in as fast as they can. Time them and write down how long it takes. At the end see who has the fastest time. Topics can be: - mountains -oceans -beauty supplies -fruits/veg The possibilities are endless. For your more impaired residents you can choose a topic, like colours or names, to make it less challenging for them to also participate. Happy Playing!
Thank you very much to Golden Carers for creating such an informative website. You have assisted me and my colleagues in developing a fun and engaging activities programme that is meaningful and interesting for our Bristol Care Homes residents. You are also our plan B in the event that plan A does not go as planned. We strongly advise all activity workers to join you.
