I am currently updating our activities station. Its a small cupboard with drawers. I have labels for books, craft, card games, table games bingo, and puzzles. I am starting to add more content and swap out things. weekly to ensure the carers and myself always have something on hand. I have space on top of the cupboard and on a shelf for more things. What should the 6th category be, and what should I put on top that will be functional, but also look nice? Any ideas?

Or seasonal
activities which you could switch depending on the season and of course or holiday

I know for my residents I have quite a few who love coloring. Everything from the very detailed to basic color by number.
Thank you for your input
