I've played "Bunco" "Left, Right, Center," "Mexico" and "Going to Boston" with my residents with Dementia! Also incorporating dice into a game where each number corresponds with a trivia question, joke, get to know you question and a category for the game of scattegories can be fun with higher functioning folks!
I am in month 10 of being the Activities Director at a small SNF. I am just wondering how y'all plan out your monthly activities? Do you sit down and plan out a whole month at once or do it as you go?
Thank you for the resources provided on Golden Carers. I found them immensely valuable, relevant and worthwhile. Educational and updated information provided. Great activity ideas and suggestions. The activities presented are appropriate and can be adapted to different client groups in any English speaking country. It is easy to read and understand the instructions and explanations.
