2014-01-21 07:17:49 PM paulette Your snowball parade entry rminded me of decorating with resident-made paper snowflakes.
2014-01-21 07:17:50 PM caronda If they could BINGO everyday all day they would..
2014-01-21 07:18:03 PM kc13 same here

2014-01-21 07:18:06 PM tloocke1 my residents like bingo, but get confused when it's not BINGO and instead something like HOLLY
2014-01-21 07:18:11 PM caronda lol
2014-01-21 07:18:17 PM alicee yes they would
2014-01-21 07:18:23 PM paulette They can also make Olympic rings mobiles with colored wire and string.
2014-01-21 07:18:35 PM kathyhughes we played Bingo everyday during other activities
2014-01-21 07:18:43 PM janice13 you can also make an olympic flag out of cups and play ring toss
2014-01-21 07:18:49 PM leland54 we are making a paper craft for the rings and then collecting bottle caps
2014-01-21 07:18:54 PM kshirer we try fopr everyday
2014-01-21 07:18:55 PM leland54 for each ring
2014-01-21 07:18:56 PM kathyhughes Olympic rings with Hula Hoops!
2014-01-21 07:18:58 PM caronda did you have prizes everytime you play
2014-01-21 07:19:06 PM kc13 i think that
2014-01-21 07:19:10 PM kathyhughes yes
2014-01-21 07:19:15 PM paulette What are the bottlecaps for?
2014-01-21 07:19:22 PM kc13 or make olymic ring paintings
2014-01-21 07:19:34 PM janice13 bottlecaps are great for crafts
2014-01-21 07:19:36 PM leland54 to orginze where the bottle caps go for lower fucntion
2014-01-21 07:19:38 PM kshirer painting is always fun
2014-01-21 07:20:06 PM annm211 my staff wanted to paint the rings with toilet paper rolls
2014-01-21 07:20:13 PM tloocke1 I save all of my toilet paper tubes, there are tons of crafts for them
2014-01-21 07:20:14 PM annm211 the ends
2014-01-21 07:20:14 PM janice13 that works
2014-01-21 07:20:16 PM kathyhughes I saw that idea
2014-01-21 07:20:17 PM caronda I would have to take some of our budget money to get prizes I guess I could go to Dollar Tree and spend $20-$30 will go a long way
2014-01-21 07:20:33 PM paulette Another idea is, before each night's showing of events, a resident gives a brief lesson on the country his/her ancestors came from (or on any country they want) ...to go along with the multinational theme of the Olympics
2014-01-21 07:20:33 PM leland54 The higher funtion makes the paper rings, and the lower funtion can orgize the bottlecaps on the paper rings
2014-01-21 07:20:37 PM janice13 also try the oreintal trading company
2014-01-21 07:20:40 PM kshirer we are making heart painting using tiolet paper rolls for v day
2014-01-21 07:20:50 PM kathyhughes right Paulette

2014-01-21 07:21:00 PM janice13 you can make snowflakes out of the toliet paper rolls to
2014-01-21 07:21:08 PM leland54 we are doing a language class
2014-01-21 07:21:08 PM lizkanderson We tried switching to actual prizes, and there was nearly a riot.
2014-01-21 07:21:20 PM kathyhughes envelopes with cards and a stamp are good prizes too
2014-01-21 07:21:28 PM lizkanderson leland, volunteer or staff leading the language class?

2014-01-21 07:22:19 PM pawood snacks cant be given to all resident they all have differnt diets and this would be a dignity issue at our facility
2014-01-21 07:22:23 PM lizkanderson It stretches the budget a LONG way

2014-01-21 07:24:16 PM paulette We may be in courses that started different weeks...In my course we had to find activity director on-line "bulletin boards" to share information with other AD's.
