I've just made some hand sized bean bags for our residents at work to use for games or just as a sensory experience, but I hadn't thought of using different materials and different fillings! Will definitely be doing this since they were so easy to throw together with my sewing machine, and I can always ask the kitchen to supply different things for filling them!
Golden Carers is a wonderful resource. I really like the idea that more of it is going to be in video format as this grabs my participant's attention! Even after 20 years in the activity director role, the ideas in Golden Carers are often refreshingly innovative and really useful, even on the fly. Your help is invaluable! Many thanks!
