Trivial Pursuit Game

We played this in 2 parts last week. Huge hit residents loved it and want more

Thank you all for the feedback. It is wonderful that you took the time to let us know how you're going. Best wishes!

Hi All, just an update - we have run this activity with a mixture of residents and students. All I can say it went far better than expected, there was a lot of buzz in the room, this activity facilitated a lot of chatter in the room, and laughter and was a great ice breaker for students. Our residents are keen to hold this again and they have let me know they wish to hold this activity each fortnight. We put teams together with each team representing a color and created certificates for the team. Thank you for highlighting this activity, the suggestions assist in creating various activities for the residents !

Thank you for this activity. With my residents they may require assistance so I am looking at this as an Intergenerational activity pairing up Resident groups with Students. This should be fun and another way of organising Quiz activity - I am looking forward to trying this out soon.

Residents really enyoyed a trivial pursuits afternoon. I had three resthomes taking the challenge -it was great fun and enjoyed by all. Thank you.

I am a volunteer and we have a social group activity once a week from 2pm till 3.45pm. Residents really look forward to this activity and after taking a leave of absence for 2 months, I have returned so that I can still facilitate the Social Group activities. This Trivial Pursuit is excellent and has given me yet another great idea to keep residents interested and motivated, without feeling we are being condescending. Just because they are in aged care doesn't mean they are not intelligent people we can learn a lot from.

I love just having quiz questions to use at appropriate times, with general knowledge appeal and easy to check answers. Thank you.
