2017-10-10 06:24:01 PM deborahavant I find it kind of hard to do crafts with my residents as they usually start a craft and then, even with my encouragement, they givce up and want me to finish it for them.
2017-10-10 06:24:04 PM cassie10 we painted rocks for our local facebook page that everyone looks for the residents love it!
2017-10-10 06:24:10 PM mmclean Residents love trivia so much I use the creative forcasting to make a triva packet they can work on weekends
2017-10-10 06:24:14 PM jadams69 I give out candy bars, tickets for drawing, or let them pick a prize from the cart.
2017-10-10 06:24:15 PM katieposey we did the rocks as well

2017-10-10 06:24:22 PM melissaz There is also a game called Blurt that looks like it would be a great trivia type game. I'm waiting for it to arrive so we can play it next week.
2017-10-10 06:24:25 PM ruby what are some example of sensory act for crafts
2017-10-10 06:24:28 PM kristind We could do ccrafts or cooking everyday and they would love it at my facility!
2017-10-10 06:24:37 PM ivarhc4 Trivia isnt a fave at my facility
2017-10-10 06:24:48 PM melissaz Nasco has a better website than magazine.
2017-10-10 06:24:48 PM cchase you can hang leaves on wire coat racks that have been shaped into a circle to hang up

2017-10-10 06:25:17 PM joedavis1 I have pictures of empty trees. We paint green leaves on them in the spring and fall colors in the fall

2017-10-10 06:25:23 PM cchase yes..both s&s ans nasco are good ones
2017-10-10 06:25:25 PM marcieowens Yes to the sensory activities, but i think my residents need more of that, corporate mandates certain activities and a choreography of the day that my residents dont psrticularly respond to
2017-10-10 06:25:32 PM kristind lol...beanbags
2017-10-10 06:25:36 PM danyelle25 good ole country game

2017-10-10 06:25:52 PM kyoung I do a sensory group 2 times a week with our art therapist. we focus on sounds like music and touch with different fabrics and textures and we do smell with different herbs and spices! They seem to like it and get something out of it. At least thats what they tell me!
2017-10-10 06:25:54 PM ebroughton We did a good sensory activity last week. We took pinecones and sprayed the spray glue on them and then tossed them in cinnamon. They are great table centerpieces and smell great!
2017-10-10 06:25:58 PM katieposey bean bag twister, spin and throw that color bean bag on the color cirle
2017-10-10 06:26:02 PM cchase purchase scented products... like pumpkin pie... or apple pie...cinnimon
2017-10-10 06:26:14 PM mmclean we call it buckeye bean bag
2017-10-10 06:26:15 PM jenniferhess2 my residents hate change when they get used to something they want to keep it that way so it makes it hard when you go to a new facility and try to make changes for the better
2017-10-10 06:26:26 PM ivarhc4 I'm working on beefing upmy sensory activities
2017-10-10 06:26:36 PM lynmyhre We have a special sensory group upstairs...I'd love to do the fall scents...great idea. I wanted to get some essential oils, but the price is crazy!
2017-10-10 06:26:38 PM kyoung Happy hour is also a big hit with my residents!
2017-10-10 06:26:41 PM ruby ooo i know my residents hate change as well
2017-10-10 06:26:44 PM ivarhc4 jenniferhess2 agreed
2017-10-10 06:26:47 PM jadams69 corn hole is a game where each person take turns throwing bags at a board with a hole in the end of it. great party game
2017-10-10 06:26:49 PM jenniferhess2 entertainment is another favorite for the elderly

2017-10-10 06:28:20 PM melissaz Sensory idea: bake bread in a bread machine. We do this in our memory care. The residents help to put the ingredients into the machine, another resident reads the recipe outloud. They get to smell the bread baking and then eat the fresh bread in the afternoon.
2017-10-10 06:28:21 PM deborahavant The carved ones usually wilt by the end of the month.

2017-10-10 06:29:47 PM kristind Does anyone use a hot plate at all? We don't have a kitchenette and it really limits our cooking and baking
2017-10-10 06:29:49 PM emilyjbquam One game that my residents really love is one that we call Roll a _______. Depending on what the season or holiday is what we put in the blank. Like right now we have Roll a Jack-o-lanter and next month Roll a turkey. We have all of the parts cut out to make a complete jack-o-lanter or turkey or whatever it may be and then have a number on the dice assigned to each item...like you need to roll a 6 to get a mouth....3 to get an eye....etc But to start you always have to roll a 1 first which give you what the main part--like the pumpkin for the jack-o-lanter--first before you can get any of the other items
2017-10-10 06:29:50 PM deborahavant I love that movie.
