I just want to thank you so very much for a wonderful website. Love, Love, LOVE IT! There are soo many great ideas for games that many of them are on my calendar. Who would of thought that the greatest people with the best ideas are on this website. I'm so grateful to have stumbled upon it.

1) I work with residents in low care (until 1st July).
I have been doing a cognitive activity of "Rebus" puzzles. Some of my residents are starting to get the hang of doing these and enjoy them.
I am looking for more Rebus puzzles that I do not have to pay for. I s anyone able to suggest books from libraries or websites ( already have some websites)?
2) I also the the 9 target word square out of the Sydney Morning
Herald (same page as crosswords). Residents enjoy this. I have used one web site but the answers were very strange.
Can anyone make suggestions please?
Thanks

Hi Patricia, That's Life Magazine has a target word puzzle, you would just need to collect each week as the answers come out about 3 weeks later. Maybe a visitor or resident subscribes and could donate to you once they are done.
There is a magazine for activity directors called Creative Forecasting and each month it has new Rebus Puzzles in them. I have found that my residents really enjoyed doing them as well so I have just been goggled Rebus Puzzles or Word Pictures in an image search and copied/pasted onto a word document.
