1. Ball Roll
Roll a colorful ball across a long table from one person to the next. Before rolling the ball to some one, call out their name. Continue calling out names, and passing the ball. This will aid in maintaining cordination, focus and interaction.
2. Bargain Hunter’s Shop and Snip
Hunt for coupons and sales ads in the newspaper, cut them out and put them in a box. After collecting alot, have them share with others. Afterwards the clippings can be used for an art project, but inevitably it aids in interaction
3. Memory Game
Talk about past times, to help recall their memory. If the conversation slows, make comments that encourage them to continue.
4. Children’s Games
Card games such as Old Maid and Crazy Eight’s are easy and fun for dementia seniors who can still concentrate on a child’s level. This is an easy way to have fun and enjoy light conversation, helping them multi task.
Funactivities!
