Can anyone please tell me where I can get some decent exercise cd's with the Chicken Dance at the start of & end of disc with exercises in the middle, this will be for seated exercises for all areas, Low Care, dementia, High Care, any information would be very appreciated
Hi Fiona - I have a few CD's that I have purchased and a few that I had to down load because I had so much trouble trying to find favourite music that the residents love to get up and active with e.g. Hokey Pokey, Chicken Dance, Tom, Tom turn around and Always look on the bright side of life - to say a few. We have exercise group 3 times a week with all residents coming together for 30 minutes of exercise. The physio put the exercise routine together and we all have fun getting physical and trying to apply the routine. We have 5 minutes of warming up .... 20 minutes of the more active exercise and 5 minutes of cooling down. I hope some of this information is helpful?
What a blessing to have found the Golden Carers website, our residents love the activities, particularly fond of visual and musical quizzes. Oh, what fun!! Thanks to all to those at Golden Carers and everyone who contributes to making this website an invaluable tool in ones' toolkit.
