Ever since I found this website ,I can't stop looking for what's coming next. Thanks to everyone for sharing your activity ideas.

I made up a picture board in our activity room of residents. The board has a poster heading "Now and "Then". I asked family to bring photos of their loved ones when they were younger and with the approval of the family , I take recent pictures of residents . I then post pictures under each "now and Then" . People would have to guess which resident picture belong to whom. This get people guessing and conversation going. Have residents and staff try to match photos and guess .

Hi Traci
I am not sure if you have Dollarama stores in your area. I found shadow box or picture frame that could be used as a shadow box. price starts at $2.50

I love the Golden Carers website. I find many different activities to do with my residents. The residents really enjoy the activities.
Thank you
