We are having $5 budget in our facility, then, we are going to Kmart and buy socks for man's and manicure set for ladies as all residents need to have their own manicure set, also is $5 necklaces to buy in Kmart or Big W or a chocolate or a box of lollies if they are allowed to eat.

Thank u for suggestions. My program is between 4.30 to 7.30 and is suppose to be build for peoples with special behaviour, and I need to find a program to settle them down. Telling stories, meditation, aromatherapy must work well. I've been told Singalong is not appropriate but they really like to sing and play music with instruments, but I received feedback as I need to lower the adrenaline not to raise, and I'm still open for suggestions.

Can u suggest some activities for Twilight program for peoples who are very unsettled in the afternoon, what program can I do to decrease their adrenaline? I have tried Sing-along, movies, reminiscing, but I need to have different activities every day and I am open for any suggestion who may help me. Thank u in advance
