Last year we had an indoor (all weather option) Easter egg scavenger hunt that proved quiet popular & even the families joined in when visiting. We printed out x12 different A4 Easter eggs with coloured patterns on them and placed them around the home on the walls for residents to walk around & find. They were given a sheet with all the different eggs pictured on it & were asked to tick them off when they found one. Spare tick sheets & marker pens were left in the main entrance Cafe to help themselves. Some eggs were easier to find than others & the residents all enjoyed the game element to it. The residents could then return to the lifestyle office / activity room with a completed tick sheet & claim their Easter egg treat. We would randomly ask where they found some of them to check they hadn't cheated but they all played fair anyway! A few fluffy toys were available as an alternative prize.
I just transferred from being a CNA to Therapeutic Recreation. I am a Pinterest queen but needed new ideas. Thank you so much, this has helped me plan May's calendar with ease. Well worth the money and I can use the pictures to make new concentration games that my residents enjoy. Again thanks so much and I will be able to add some games myself
