Hi my names Alicia I'm from a care home in Hamilton. we have a couple days of making crafts, flax's or stars to go up on the walls, we also have a huge big roast meal and decorate the lounge/dinning area with lights and stars, the children from the near by school come over and do a kapa haka performance for the residents. any other ideas out there i would love to know.
I absolutely love this website and get most of my daily activities from it. Love the monthly diary too. It has so much to offer for different stages of dementia residents. I love the artwork, games, and quizzes which we use every day. People are constantly asking where do I get my ideas. Thank you so much!
I am not from New Zealand but I think this comment will help you
