Have a Picture Scavenger Hunt using old or multiple calendars.
I used this idea the other day. I was donated many calendars and since most if not all the residents have a calendar or two already, I could not throw them away! Almost all were duplicates it was easy to cut the pictures away from the calendar grid and post them in different locations. Quick and easy activity to get everyone moving and chatting to each other. post and number the pictures, create a handout for their name and a space where they can write down the location/s where they found the corresponding picture.

I did a St. Patrick's Day Scavenger Hunt with Google photos of famous places in Ireland. Very similar to the Mardi Gras scavenger hunt on this site. Both were huge hits with my residents! Love the idea of using old calendars...will keep that in mind for rainy day activities this spring and summer. Thank you!
Golden Carers is AMAZING! We use it every day in one capacity or another. It has assisted to make our jobs easier as well as stepping up our activities! Thank you for all the materials and resources, keep up the GREAT work!
