2018-08-16 06:01:06 PM patriciabates Wedo it a few ways, one we go throught the grocery ads and let them pick what they would like to buy
2018-08-16 06:01:34 PM jadams69 we have it on a wii game with 6 hand held game controls. we pair them off in teams and they play the game with us
2018-08-16 06:01:45 PM patriciabates then we give them prizes for the resident that gets the most prices right
2018-08-16 06:01:55 PM sunshine2018 we are drawing all the prompt and drawing the postors for the game and we ordered the spinning wheel and having difference groceries for the groceries game
2018-08-16 06:01:55 PM kathyhughes But how can you do it without the WII
2018-08-16 06:02:11 PM rickyd I'm here... how's everyone doing?
2018-08-16 06:02:41 PM kathyhughes Doing great...figuring out how to do the Price is Right with the residents
2018-08-16 06:02:51 PM patriciabates We don't use the wii
2018-08-16 06:02:56 PM kathyhughes and I am sure that you are making a PLINKO Board
2018-08-16 06:03:24 PM kirstensch7 we have a PC version for our residents to play with as a team against team or residents against PC
2018-08-16 06:03:31 PM jadams69 we get items from our resident store and we also make them with empty cardboard boxes, let them guess the prices and we pretend to be Bob Barer
2018-08-16 06:03:31 PM jessicas enter the chat room
2018-08-16 06:03:35 PM patriciabates We are ordering a Plino board off Oriental trading

2018-08-16 06:03:43 PM jessicas Hello Everyone
2018-08-16 06:03:43 PM laurajackson ITS FUN
2018-08-16 06:03:47 PM jenniferr2018 We have wii so I am very intersted..I think my folks would love it. I do Family Fued with them with a board on answers for them and "x"
2018-08-16 06:03:50 PM patriciabates PLINKO*
2018-08-16 06:03:52 PM jadams69 barker
2018-08-16 06:04:00 PM kathyhughes We madw one with foam board and golf tees

2018-08-16 06:04:07 PM kirstensch7 we got a Wii too I will look into the game
2018-08-16 06:04:39 PM lindsaypkrull I never would have thought to use golf tees to make a PLINKO board. That's smart.
2018-08-16 06:04:39 PM sunshine2018 i bought a plinko board on amazon, its amazing
2018-08-16 06:05:29 PM sunshine2018 thats awesome i should of made one but didnt think how to make it...LOL\
2018-08-16 06:05:32 PM kathyhughes http://www.scottcochrane.com/index.php/2013/05/20/how-plinko-chip-leadership-can-lead-to-better-decisions/
2018-08-16 06:05:42 PM rickyd i like the without wii ideas; though we have a wii, my residents haven't really taken to it. I believe it's a generational thing...most of my residents are 70 plus, therefore most of them shy away from computer things.
2018-08-16 06:05:58 PM jessicas You can make one with wooden dowels and peg baord also
2018-08-16 06:06:01 PM jenniferr2018 Kathy, I found the bowling dice game I tried the bowling dice with my residents ...they love dice games ...they are hooked
2018-08-16 06:06:02 PM kathyhughes There are lots of ideas to make you own Plinko Board on Pinterest

2018-08-16 06:06:32 PM sunshine2018 I looked the sight up awesome
2018-08-16 06:06:37 PM patriciabates Our residents are amazed by wii but not big fans of using it
2018-08-16 06:06:54 PM sunshine2018 I will look on pintrest too
2018-08-16 06:06:55 PM jenniferr2018 Yes..that makes it very nive in deed

2018-08-16 06:07:11 PM kathyhughes We also would collect packages from staff to make items to guess the price
2018-08-16 06:07:23 PM lindsaypkrull We have a Wii and i have tried several times to get them interested in it and they aren't really interested in it at all. haha
2018-08-16 06:07:36 PM sunshine2018 we bought the mario game and they did not like it too well
2018-08-16 06:07:40 PM jadams69 ours loves to play bingo and price is right on wii.
2018-08-16 06:07:54 PM jenniferr2018 cool
2018-08-16 06:07:56 PM jadams69 we have a few more games they are not so thrilled about
2018-08-16 06:08:01 PM rickyd I'm thinking a lot of craft activities can be done in creating the P i R games.
2018-08-16 06:08:02 PM kirstensch7 my residents do prefer the black board over any PC game. Most of my residemts are well over 80, so I guess it is a generation thing
2018-08-16 06:08:04 PM kathyhughes We used a couple of very vintage Atari games and some of the residents loved them
2018-08-16 06:08:04 PM jadams69 they love yahtzee
2018-08-16 06:08:09 PM jenniferr2018 Mine love the sports ones

2018-08-16 06:08:59 PM laurajackson I made a Wheel of Fourtune board and our residents loves it!
2018-08-16 06:09:06 PM patriciabates Bowling and just dance are about the only ones ours like and i think they just like me making a fool of myself when I do it lol
2018-08-16 06:09:11 PM jenniferr2018 Residents love to help...purposefully moment
2018-08-16 06:09:22 PM sunshine2018 our residents love the tv game, they watch it faithfully everyday m-f
2018-08-16 06:09:40 PM rickyd what? not drew carey? Most of my residents wouldn't know who drew is, but they definetely know who Bob Barker is.hahaha
2018-08-16 06:09:42 PM sunshine2018 we even put it on the calendar
2018-08-16 06:09:44 PM jadams69 patricia mine love to watch me make a fool of myself and act crazy
2018-08-16 06:09:51 PM kirstensch7 yes mine love watching it too but wont play it on PC. It's more my caregivers that play it
2018-08-16 06:09:54 PM kathyhughes We would have a Price is Right luncheon once a month
2018-08-16 06:09:56 PM jadams69 it makes them laugh- a joyful sound to hear..
2018-08-16 06:10:15 PM laurajackson Whats that Kathy?
2018-08-16 06:10:19 PM lindsaypkrull I have thought about having a Price is Right tv time in the morning because our residents watch it at that time on their tvs anyway
2018-08-16 06:10:31 PM patriciabates One game my residents did like was on our chrome cast the Memory game I would put it up on the tv
2018-08-16 06:10:35 PM kathyhughes We would have a lunch and watch the Price is Right
2018-08-16 06:10:36 PM sunshine2018 oh wow that would be great I will have to put that lucheon on our calendar
2018-08-16 06:10:47 PM laurajackson Oh, Ok.
2018-08-16 06:10:54 PM kathyhughes we also did that for the Young and the Restless
2018-08-16 06:10:55 PM jadams69 lindsay i play the price is right on our big screen tv after exercise every morning so they can watch it.
2018-08-16 06:11:20 PM rickyd i don't spend a lot of time in front of the tv with my residents, i mainly use it as a filler between activities... I feel like they get enough of that in their rooms.
2018-08-16 06:11:31 PM lindsaypkrull jadams69 that's a great idea. We have exercise in the morning too. That might be incentive to get them to come to exercise
2018-08-16 06:11:33 PM kathyhughes We even made the games for the staff to participate in for National Nursing Home WEek
2018-08-16 06:11:42 PM sonal kathy i have one question what is difefrent activity certificat or activity license???
2018-08-16 06:12:05 PM kathyhughes There is NO Activity License
2018-08-16 06:12:42 PM sonal only certificat?
2018-08-16 06:13:06 PM sunshine2018 most of my residents watch tv in the day room
2018-08-16 06:13:35 PM kathyhughes If you look at the qualifications for an Activity Director from week 2 in MEPAP1 you will see what you need to be qualified
2018-08-16 06:13:40 PM jadams69 thats how i get mine down to exercise every morning is "the price is right"
2018-08-16 06:13:45 PM sunshine2018 we try to have them out doing some sort of activities but remember we have only 18 residents
2018-08-16 06:13:50 PM jadams69 they all come down to activities
2018-08-16 06:14:00 PM kathyhughes Certification is one of the qualifiers
2018-08-16 06:14:06 PM patriciabates I just got home from our quarterly Theme Dinner this quarter was the South pacific
2018-08-16 06:14:18 PM patriciabates THe musical

2018-08-16 06:14:42 PM laurajackson That's Great!
2018-08-16 06:14:57 PM kathyhughes What did you do for the party Patricia???
2018-08-16 06:15:20 PM jenniferr2018 yes..do tell..
2018-08-16 06:15:23 PM kirstensch7 my residents love the daily news and the morning shows for some reasons - only two would watch TV in their rooms, they love watching together whatever is on.
2018-08-16 06:15:30 PM sonal ok thanks kathy
2018-08-16 06:15:32 PM patriciabates I most excited about next time its Beauty and the beast
2018-08-16 06:15:38 PM sunshine2018 I am taking 9 to the restraunt for coffee/tea on Saturday so they can visit with the other elders
2018-08-16 06:15:56 PM kathyhughes Sounds great Ronda
2018-08-16 06:16:13 PM jadams69 mine too kirsten they love watching tv in the activity room with everyone else.
2018-08-16 06:16:15 PM kathyhughes Do you do the themes Patricia???
2018-08-16 06:16:32 PM rickyd i lead "sittercise" M W F for the residents. we do 30 minutes of exercise, then play with a balloon (keeping it airborne, with me in the middle) for 30 minutes; and i am constantly impressed with those that normally are not physically active becoming crazed by the idea of hitting me in the face with the balloon...as they all roar with laughter.
2018-08-16 06:16:35 PM jadams69 we have snacks and drinks with price is riht
2018-08-16 06:16:40 PM patriciabates well we do different activities through out the week related including making Pacific
2018-08-16 06:16:41 PM kathyhughes We would watch the shows together and they would talk about them
2018-08-16 06:16:55 PM patriciabates foods and watched the movie
2018-08-16 06:16:58 PM sunshine2018 then on Sunday its my off day but I come in aND TAKE SOME OF THEM TO CHURCH THEY LOVE GOING AND SEEING PEOPLE THEY KNOW AND THEN CERTAINLY TO LISTEN TO THE SERMON lol
2018-08-16 06:17:23 PM patriciabates tonight they had authentic foods decorations
2018-08-16 06:17:40 PM kathyhughes Oh Rick if you fill the balloon 1/4 with helium it will float a little
2018-08-16 06:17:49 PM jenniferr2018 Cool..we did that with going to Hawaii for the week...everyday was dedicated to the theme. Our next will be the week in Germany for Octoberfest
2018-08-16 06:17:54 PM sunshine2018 WE HAVE STORY HOUR WHERE THE RESIDENTS TALK ABOUT THEIR CHILDHOOD AND WHAT THEY DID AS A CHILD SUCH AS FISHING HUNTING ETC
2018-08-16 06:18:00 PM patriciabates the works its a big deal I wish I could show you all the pics they had a blast
2018-08-16 06:18:53 PM rickyd we do have regular movie nights, but I have found that it only appeals to a minimum group of my residents. They are much more into live music, and musical groups
2018-08-16 06:18:54 PM kathyhughes I am sure that they did...so it's like Dinner and a Movie
2018-08-16 06:19:04 PM feleciap18 enter the chat room
2018-08-16 06:19:08 PM sunshine2018 ME TOO IHAVE HAVE SOME AWESOME PICTURES OF THE SMILING AND LAUGHING IT JUST MELTS MY HEART
2018-08-16 06:19:37 PM lindsaypkrull Our residents prefer live music & entertainment as well.
2018-08-16 06:19:42 PM jadams69 i have a hospice volunteer that comes in every month and does slides from different ountries. we dress up and eat snacks and food from the country of the month.. its pretty cool and the residents always enjoy it.
2018-08-16 06:19:42 PM jenniferr2018 We use to try and hit the balloon and keep counting and hitting it around until we missed. We got up to 3oo hits on time..they loved to keep track of how well they did each time.I would make a big deal out of it too.
2018-08-16 06:19:49 PM kirstensch7 we'll do an Oktoberfest too - and a Summer end Luau party in September
2018-08-16 06:20:11 PM lindsaypkrull We play with the balloon a lot too.
2018-08-16 06:20:18 PM kathyhughes I would guess that if you had a theme dinner that matched the movie the residents would attend
2018-08-16 06:20:32 PM rickyd we do dinner and a movie regularly. we also do "travel the world" where we use dvds to explore various locations and places around the globe.
2018-08-16 06:20:51 PM jenniferr2018 cool
2018-08-16 06:20:53 PM patriciabates no the movie was earlier this week the dinner was tonight the tables are set like they were going to a Play fancy dinner and was set with broadway night theme
2018-08-16 06:20:57 PM sunshine2018 i AM TAKING OUR RESIDENTS TO THE THEATRE HERE
2018-08-16 06:21:43 PM sunshine2018 WE HAVE TO BE REALLY CREATE HERE IN nOME BECAUSE THERE IS NOT ALOT TO DO
2018-08-16 06:21:58 PM sunshine2018 SORRY TYPO CREATIVE
2018-08-16 06:22:02 PM jessicas Theatre here is difficult because bathrooms are so far away
2018-08-16 06:22:04 PM jenniferr2018 your in Alaska ..right
2018-08-16 06:22:16 PM patriciabates Our movie theater will allow us to bring our movie and they will play it for us so they get to go to the theater
2018-08-16 06:22:16 PM kathyhughes We also would supply trivia games to the residents if there was a particular movie on TV at night and they would have to answer it while watching the movie and then turn it in the next day for a prize
2018-08-16 06:22:31 PM sunshine2018 YES IN REMOTE nOME aLASKA ITS HAS ABOUT 2600 PEOPLE
2018-08-16 06:22:35 PM lindsaypkrull I like the movie trivia game idea
2018-08-16 06:22:59 PM kathyhughes It was great for the month of December! And Christmas Day
2018-08-16 06:23:18 PM jadams69 yes trivia is always good
2018-08-16 06:23:19 PM jenniferr2018 Yep, I bet you are very creative
2018-08-16 06:23:33 PM kirstensch7 most of my residents love live entertainment of any kind and music. Everything I do has music in the background (Bing Crosby is a huge hit) - together with snacks I usually get 10 to attend, no matter what's on the calendar. I only have three - 4 residents that are crafty but all the others just sit with us and sing along with the music
2018-08-16 06:24:02 PM sonal today we going to casino with client
2018-08-16 06:24:14 PM patriciabates We are going to start giving out tickets for bingo and have a store at the end of the month for bingo and other game prizes instead of money has anyone tried this? is so do they like it
2018-08-16 06:24:47 PM sunshine2018 I DO TOO I WILL HAVE TO TRY THE TRIVIA
2018-08-16 06:24:54 PM kathyhughes We did, you have to keep track of the tickets
2018-08-16 06:25:18 PM jenniferr2018 Today I had an outing to Red Lobster with 18 a mix of memory care and assisted living. You get good at entertainer while you wait...and remembering what everyone orded..lol
2018-08-16 06:25:21 PM kirstensch7 I tired with my residents but they are all memory care residents and they had a hard time understanding the ticket / store dollar concept. They even started to haggle the prices down lol. It's easier with the AL residents
2018-08-16 06:25:21 PM patriciabates NOt give them to the residents?
2018-08-16 06:25:27 PM kathyhughes some of the residents lost the tickets...so we would have to keep track of what they won
2018-08-16 06:25:28 PM jadams69 yes patricia we just did a store where residents shopped with paper money we made for bingo. they really enjoyed it
2018-08-16 06:25:44 PM sunshine2018 WE PLAY BINGO AND I MADE BINGO BUCKS AND WE HAVE A CART THAT THE RESIDENTS CAN BUY THINGS AND CANDIES
2018-08-16 06:25:46 PM laurajackson I give mine bingo bucks. They love it! Bingo bucks is more like money for them.
2018-08-16 06:26:10 PM patriciabates I could keep a log and give them the points day of the store
2018-08-16 06:26:19 PM lindsaypkrull Our residents get to choose different candy and snacks when we play BINGO.
2018-08-16 06:26:22 PM jadams69 we gave out tickets and had a drawing every friday. they all got paper money for attending activities.m
2018-08-16 06:26:31 PM feleciap18 my paper money idea did not work
2018-08-16 06:26:38 PM lindsaypkrull However, I have thought about trying a BINGO store to where they can get other things besides snacks
2018-08-16 06:26:40 PM kathyhughes Yes because you will also have residents coming to the auction who do not play Bingo
