We play a version of scattergries where we have12 questions and then I ask my residents to pick a letter. Any answer we are unable to get, I go to Dr Google and then I report back to the players. There is a lot of laughing and learning. It's great
played this this afternoon but took it a bit further I googled colours body parts and emotions and ended up with very comprehensive lists which we used in the game as we have some very high functioning residents it was very popular. I will definitely run this game again. I had 15 or so residents playing well over the hour and we only did 5 letters!
