Hello! Just wondering what percussion instruments are popular with your residents? Egg shakers are very popular but looking for something a bit different to add to the mix. Thanks in advance!
I work at a dementia day centre and I use egg shakers on a regular basis. I choose songs with a good beat and work out a simple routine for our members. I then get the members to come up with their own movements that the rest of us have to follow. It is wonderful to see the creativity of our members when it is their turn to shake! Highly recommend getting egg shakers for your centre!
